I'm leaving the wat
To Buddhism no longer loyal
I'm breaking my heart
As my compassion to the Third World turns to greed
Bye bye, real McCoy
No ideals as if I was royal
Now I'm a material boy
There's nothing in this world I don't think I need

Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping
There'll always be new stuff to buy
And I'll expand my needs somehow, yeah
Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping
There'll always be new stuff to buy
And I'll expand my needs somehow, I swear

I bought a new iMac and mouse
A phone to go with my new spirit
Next step might be a house
Six bedrooms and a pool just for me
I will live like a star
The beggars' chant, won't hear it
I'll have boat, new TV and car
And in my mouth, a fat Cuban cigar

Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping
There'll always be new stuff to buy
And I'll expand my needs somehow, yeah
Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping
There'll always be new stuff to buy
And I'll expand my needs somehow, I swear
Now I'm shopping
There'll always be new stuff to buy
I'm not stopping
And I'll expand my needs somehow
And I'll expand my needs somehow, I swear

[Outro - x4]
Now I'm shopping, I'm not stopping
There'll always be new stuff to buy
And I'll expand my needs somehow, I swear
