A crisis is eminent The credence is gone Accrued interest All the fiduciary responsibility lost I need an eternity in Emerald Glass Ceiling Where bars let in the green sun And the surreal nation Knows a dictator wears pajamas Like any person wears pajamas But, many of the poor sleep naked And the dictators and kings Are never naked They can wear emerald around their tin cans On Grand Street Up and down the block Below the alley within Belgrade The mailbox is locked All responsibility is lost Stolen cash in the cash register No one can talk about the burning house Where the hurt ate liver pie Calculating the next Christmas wine Emerald colored sky When will you cry? Cry till sun beats for forgotten souls Moonbeams turn green Into the ocean unknown cockles and fettered fish Hooked by reflection of water and moonlight Eternity in a palm of God Looks like a winning hand
