[SHELDRAKE]
Tell me
How long must I keep
Wanting things
Needing things
When I have so much?

There are many men who have much less than me
Day by day
They make their way
And they find more in life than I can see

Tell me
When will I learn to resist
Wanting things
Touching things
That say "Do, do not touch?"

People that I meet seem to think I am strong
They don't see
Inside of me
So they don't know I'm weak and often wrong

Tell me
Why must I keep
Wanting things
Needing things
That just can't be mine?
Oh, wanting things
That just can't be mine?
