[Verse 1]
The world is your oyster
And it rests in your hands
But the oyster is dying
When the gun is the soul of a man

[Chorus]
And as you drown in a pool of caviar
The stars shine above
You ignore the beauty and the miracle of life
And all your money drips with blood

[Verse 2]
Well I wanna make merry
But my head is a wasp
And the notion of kindness
Is a joke and an albatross

[Chorus]
And as you drown in a pool of caviar
The stars shine above
You ignore the beauty and the miracle of life
And all your money drips with blood

[Chorus]
And as you drown in a pool of caviar
The stars shine above
You become the carcass of a heartless slob
And all your money drips with blood

[Verse 3]
And what about the piglet?
Or the sturgeon's roe?
Or those fellow species with their fortunes told?
They don't share the value of a sausage roll
And all your money drips with blood
