All my friends have so much

Even my neighbors have so much

So much compared to my so little

Why do they have more than me?

Why do they have better than me?

Why can't I have what they have?

I bought this car just last year

It wasn't new, but I thought it was nice

My neighbor across the way just bought a new one

A pretty, sleek, fast, sports car

Why should they have more than me?

Why should they have better than me?

Why can't I have what they have?

Sure, I have a nice little condo

But my friend just bought a house with their partner

The house warming wasn't much

No party could outshine that house

How could they have more than me?

How could they have better than me?

Why can't I have what they have?

My home is small

My car is old

My clothes don't fill my closet

I don't have many nice things

How dare they have more than me

How dare they have better than me

Why shouldn't I have what they have
