Overpopulation is a Myth

Thanks to Jonathan Haseldine for writing the backing track I used for this song.

Overpopulation
That's a lie, guy 
There's enough to go around 
Food grows out of the ground 
Overpopulation
That is an untruth
There are enough buildings for everyone to get a roof 
There's enough to meet everybody's needs 
The problem is capitalism. Too much greed 
For a fuckin' dollar, people make us bleed 
Make a moneyless world. I beg and plead
Plant foods are plentiful and tasteful 
But capitalism is inefficient and wasteful 
People suffer and get devastated, 
because the resources aren't properly allocated
Food gets thrown into dumpsters. I've seen that shit 
I've rescued food and eaten it 
No such thing as overpopulation. It's a myth 
I'm tellin' the truth, not pleading the fifth 
If people make a baby, don't lay shame
Hate the system. Capitalism is to blame 
The "rich" are hoarding money like it's a game
And I say "rich" in quotation marks because I proclaim
that money isn't real. It's an illusion 
Money isn't real wealth. Wake up from the delusion 
You can't eat money. Cannot drink it 
Money is less valuable than shit
Overpopulation
That's a lie, guy 
There's enough to go around 
Food grows out of the ground 
Overpopulation
That is an untruth
There are enough buildings for everyone to get a roof 
There's enough to meet everybody's needs 
The problem is capitalism. Too much greed 
For a fuckin' dollar, people make us bleed 
Make a moneyless world. I beg and plead
If you bury money, it won't fertilize the soil 
Money is annoying, like a boil 
You can't even have a warm place to crash
without a landlord constantly asking for cash 
So you get a job 
Most times it's pointless,
but you do it anyway so you won't be houseless
You work hard every day to make someone "rich,"
just so you don't have to sleep in a ditch
Rent is theft. Profit is theft too 
The whole system is rigged against me and you 
If we wanna be free, we gotta build community
Build a culture of sharing. A shareocracy
Work at a job or starve? That is a threat 
We need a world where everyone's needs are met
We are all family, let us not forget
On a moneyless world, the sun will soon set
Overpopulation
That's a lie, guy 
There's enough to go around 
Food grows out of the ground 
Overpopulation
That is an untruth
There are enough buildings for everyone to get a roof 
There's enough to meet everybody's needs 
The problem is capitalism. Too much greed 
For a fuckin' dollar, people make us bleed 
Make a moneyless world. I beg and plead
