Envious

I'll pull it from under you
When you least expect
When you have it all
On top of the ladder

You left us behind
You left me behind

Don't think I'm envious
I'm not envious
The higher you climb
The faster you fall

We were makers
We were the thinkers
You stole our jewels
And built them your crown

Don't think I'm envious
I'm not envious
The higher your climb
The faster your fall
Don't think I'm envious
How many did you pull down
The higher you climb
The faster you fall

And don't be too surprised
When you retire
My little green demon
Deletes your pension
