The most beautiful place on earth
is smothered in wealth and worth
gold trickles down from the skies
and into greedy men’s eyes
they ingest silver
and wear extravagant coats made of fur
a thin layer of paper money covers their head
while a pile of ingots creates their bed
The finest silk sings them to sleep
while the coin birds and euro cockroaches weep
the crystal moon starts to rise
and the rich men can’t even hear
the poor children’s cries
