Here's a tale of
woe and love
a ballad soft and low
it shows how greed
can rise above
and how far it will go

King Midas had a
wonderous gift
turned everything he touched
into gold, an alchemy shift
he wanted wealth so much

But he loved his daughter
more than that
she, a maid so bold
she ran to him
where he then sat
and became solid gold

Thus ends the tale of avarice
Midas had the world
but would have
lost all in a trice

to save
his little girl
