A Fools Game
Chasing gold in the streets so loud
Silver dreams behind a money cloud
Every whisper's turning into shouts
Fool’s treasure ain't what life's about
Counting coins in a darkened room
Bright numbers can't erase the gloom
Towers high built on shallow ground
Empty hearts with each clicking pound
Love of money it's a fools game
Chasing shadows in a stormy rain
Heart of stone can't feel the flame
Love of money breaks the name
Paper dreams that can tear so quick
Greed's a hunger that'll make you sick
Every step on a fragile rope
Tripping over in a world of hope
Kings and queens on a paper throne
Lose their crown when they're all alone
Foolish heart in a gold-masked play
Rich in numbers but poor each day
Love of money it's a fools game
Chasing shadows in a stormy rain
Heart of stone can't feel the flame
Love of money breaks the name
