Selfishness is personified in a raucous, humorous, rock jaunt.
I am a songwriter dedicated to spreading the good news about the love and mercy of my Savior, Jesus Christ.
Story behind the song
This song was motivated by God, the Florida sun and good fellowship.
Lyrics
"Selfish!" by Hank Stansfield and Scott Gemeinhardt
VERSE:
Give me lots of money
Because happiness has a price
You give me all the things I need
To buy a better life
CHORUS 1:
Selfishness, you are my friend
You give me all I want all the time
Selfishnes, how come you never end?
Is it because you are selfish?
VERSE:
Now I've got lots of money
(BGV: Or does your money have you?)
And I really love all my stuff
(BGV: Does your stuff show you love?)
I've got everything I need
And it's almost enough
(BGV: Does it ever show you...)
(BGV: Does it ever show you love?)
CHORUS 2:
Selfishness, are you my friend?
You give me all I want all the time
Selfishness, how come you never end?
Is it because I am selfish?
BRIDGE:
I use, I discard, I throw on the floor
Everything you give me
Piled up so high I can't see anymore
I can't see my one need
Jesus is my one need!
CHORUS 3:
Selfishness, you are no friend!
You give me all I want all the time and it hurts
Selfishness, how come you never end?
Is it because you are selfish?
Is it because I am selfish?
Is it because I am you and you are SELFISH
