[Intro] N.C. Wake up kids it’s half past the youth Ain’t nothin’ really changin’ but the date You’re a grand slammer but you’re no Babe Ruth You gotta learn how to relate Or you’ll be swingin’ from the pearly gate Yeah I got all the answers lo and behold I got the right key baby But the wrong key hole yo       [Opening Riff] e|-------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------------------| D|-------5~------------------------------2---2-----| x4 A|--5-7--------5-7------------5----------2---2-----| E|------------------3~----5-6---6--5--3--0---0-----|    Yeah! [Verse 1]    Well I woke up this morning   On the wrong side of the bed    And how I got to thinkin’   About all those things you said    About ordinary people   And how they make you sick    And if callin’ names kicks back on you   Then I hope this does the trick [Pre-Chorus 1] Cause I’m sick of your complainin’ about how many bills And I’m sick of all your bitchin’ ’bout your poodles and your pills And I just can’t see no humor about your way of life And I think I can do more for you with this here fork and knife! [Chorus] Eat the rich  there’s only one thing that they’re good for Eat the rich   I take one bite now - come back for more Eat the rich  I gotta get this off my chest Eat the rich  I take one bite now spit out the rest [Solo 1] [Verse 2]    So I called up my head shrinker   and I told him what I’d done    He said you’d best go on a diet   yeah I hope you have some fun    And a’don’t go burst a bubble   on the rich folks who get rude    Cause you won’t get in no trouble   when you eats that kinda food [Pre-Chorus 2] Now their smokin’ up the jail bonds and then they go get stiff And they’re dancin’ in the yacht club with Muff and Uncle Biff But there’s one good thing that happens when you toss your pearls to swine Their attitudes may taste like shit but go real good with wine! [Chorus] Eat the rich  there’s only one thing that they’re good for Eat the rich   I take one bite now - come back for more Eat the rich  I gotta get this off my chest Eat the rich  I take one bite now spit out the rest [Pre-Solo Riff] e|-------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------| G|-------------------------------------------------| D|-------5~------------------------------2---2-----| x4 A|--5-7--------5-7------------5----------2---2-----| E|------------------3~----5-6---6--5--3--0---0-----| [Solo 2]               [Pre-Chorus 3] Believe in all the good things that money just can’t buy Then you won’t get no belly ache from eatin’ humble pie I believe in rags to riches your inheritence won’t last So take your Grey Poupon my friend and shove it up your ass! [Chorus] Eat the rich  there’s only one thing that they’re good for Eat the rich   I take one bite now - come back for more Eat the rich  I gotta get this off my chest Eat the rich  I take one bite now spit out the rest Eat the rich  there’s only one thing that they’re good for Eat the rich   I take one bite now - come back for more Eat the rich  don’t stop me now I’m going crazy Eat the rich   that’s my idea of a good time baby     BURP!

Cette chanson évoque un sentiment de révolte contre l'élite et le mépris qu'elle semble avoir pour les gens ordinaires. L’auteur exprime son ras-le-bol face aux plaintes constantes des riches concernant leurs problèmes insignifiants, tout en soulignant l’écart entre leur mode de vie et la réalité de la majorité. À travers des métaphores provocantes, il suggère que la véritable richesse ne réside pas dans l’argent, mais dans les valeurs humaines essentielles. Le contexte est celui d'une critique sociale, où l'artiste interpelle les privilégiés sur leur attitude dédaigneuse envers ceux qui luttent au quotidien. Il transforme cette frustration en une sorte de provocation ludique, suggérant une manière de « manger » littéralement les riches comme une réaction aux injustices sociales. Au final, il appelle à une prise de conscience sur les vraies valeurs de la vie.
