I Do Not Wish To Know Of

I do not wish to know of how marvelous you are
Or of the size of your house or of the size of your car
Or of your wonderful kids and your beautiful wife
And of your wealthy friends and your marvelous life
Though money speaks every language in the Human World of today
As of the type of person you are nothing it does say
It does not tell us for those doing it tough you feel sympathy
That you are a person of compassion and empathy
Yes money speaks every language happens to be true
But it does not tell us anything about the real you
Since money can buy one almost anything
The praises of the billionaire the impressionable do sing
It can buy you a billion dollar home and the most expensive new car
But it does not tell us anything of the person you really are.
