What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The hungry ghosts that haunt the working day
2
Who want it most and want it yesterday,
3
Will seduce you with your power, crush you like a flower
4
Here comes payday
5
You're headed for a taste of bittersweet times,
6
The sun and moon'll never rise to deadlines
7
And wellin' up within will come the taste of nearly winning,
8
Perfume and saline...
9
And every little tear is like an ocean
10
That falls beyond the reach of our emotions
11
A place within a place where everybody bears
12
a trace of every promise ever broken
13
You say it doesn't touch you but you seem so sore,
14
Maybe you don't wanna be touched anymore
15
The world is waitin' but you"ve seen it all before...
16
With your hungry ghost eyes, your hungry ghost eyes
17
In the city there's no place to hide
18
from a world defined by foolish pride
19
You say it's what you choose because you couldn't bear to lose
20
And so your soul's denied
21
Out on the bridge beyond the bottom line
22
I started thinkin' 'bout what wasn't mine
23
My lips were gettin' drier, the boulevards were hummin'
24
With the sound of sheer desire, we've really got it comin',
25
This paste and copy world has lost its meaning,
26
Where things are only ever what they seem,
27
It's bound to bring you down when every word that seemed profound
28
Suggests the sound of someone schemin'
29
You say that your ambition's gonna get you free,
30
Instead of sittin' wishin' for what you can't be,
31
You wanna buy it but your soul can see
32
Into your hungry ghost eyes, your hungry ghost eyes
33
You say you've found something that could set you free,
34
You're gonna sit and wish for what you want to be,
35
You're itchin' to believe it but you still can't see
36
You're mixin' up the money with the mystery
37
But there's a little biddy Buddha where there didn't used to be
38
I hope your hungry ghost eyes meet his innermost smile
