She was a girl dressed in glitter
And I could tell by the look on her face
That by her side my life would be bitter
Well I can't tell now pleasure from pain
But I will be a man, take the chance
Live my life and pay in the end

Yeah, she'll come back ripping
Yeah, you better beware
Yeah, she'll come back ripping
Yeah, greed is her name

Now I'm back in the gutter
She's like a leech sleeping tight next to me
I know I should have run away
From all those ditches and witches
Instead, I stood there and took it all in
Yet I am still a man, took the chance
Lived my life and paid in the end

Yeah, she'll come back ripping
Yeah, you better beware
Yeah, she'll come back ripping
Yeah, greed is her name
