A Little Piece Of Sky

Manny wants to own the street and the people on it too
Rake it in and tell them all what to say and do
Jim would like to own the fields where trees and grasses grow
So he could build a factory with toxic waste and smoke
Janie is the condo queen it makes her feel alive
Mandatory meetings and buzzing in the hive

That's alright - that's ok
I hope they all get what they need
It's a fine line between blind ambition
And never ending greed
That's alright - that's ok
If none of them know why
I just want to stake my claim
To a little piece of sky

Steven b sells stocks and bonds - he can't really lose
If it goes up or takes a dump he collects his dues
Roger wants to build the biggest baddest place around
He might get it up before they make him tear it down
Victor he once said to me - it's a most amazing thing
Just collecting royalties in a land where cash is king

I just want to stake my claim
To a little piece of sky
