The Selfish Song Songtext
von VeggieTales

So, King George, what did you learn today?
What I learned, let me tell you
Today, I learned

That being selfish doesn′t pay
I tried it just the other day
I wanted to be happy
I thought it was the way
But it weren't (I think you mean wasn′t, it wasn't the way)


Well, now I know just what to do
Before I think about me, I better think about you
So, send the message out to every boy and girl
There's no better way to make a really yucky world

Than being selfish (selfish, oh)
It doesn′t pay, I tried it (he tried it just the other day)
I wanted to be happy (he thought it was the way)
But it weren′t (weren't, weren′t, weren't, weren′t) (wait a minute)

No, weren't (weren′t, weren't, weren't, weren′t) (wasn′t)
No, weren't (weren′t, weren't, weren′t, weren't) (King George, it wasn′t the way)
No, weren't (weren't, weren′t, weren′t, weren't)
No, weren′t (wasn't)
