GOLD
lyrics: J. Morse © 1984
All the fire burning in their eyes
Has the shine of gold. . .
Corporate excess
High-level incest
Ice taking over for blood
Tyrannical chairmen
Directors of death
Playing the billionaire seven-card stud
Currency pipeline
Icicle bloodline
Competitors coming undone
Bulging their pockets
Riding the rockets
While steaming in the sun
And the flame in their eyes flickers out
As they realize they're growing old
But the fire in their son's eyes
Has the power of gold
