Greedy Eyes Poem by Ramona Thompson

Rewrite of the Dirty Dancing hit movie song, Hungry Eyes



I simply can't believe you

It seems your cravin' will never subside

You look at what is mine

And you fantasize

It could all be yours tonight

No, I don't know why

My wallet

You have in your sights



Chorus



With those greedy eyes

One look at my bank account

And you can't disguise

You've got greedy eyes

And fast it is killing

The friendship between you and I



I will never grant a loan to you

No, don't need to hear you out

Cause I know true

Just what your sob story is all about

So pathetic tonight

No, no more

So sick of your many lies



Chorus



With your greedy eyes

Now tell me

Why is my wallet in your sights?

With your greedy eyes

Sadly it is no surprise

You refuse to see

Money from me to you

Never will be



Chorus



You've got greedy eyes

No right to have

My wallet in your sights

With those greedy eyes

Sadly it is no surprise

To see your greedy eyes

Greedy eyes

My wallet is in your sights

You terrible

Greedy eyes
