A bouquet of tulips
Pink, white, and red
The petals sing love songs
Skipping to the beat of their cocaine addicted hearts
"Great gig"
30 minutes for a five second note
Congratulations!
You've found beauty in murder
The bees would call you a thief
Validation from a "you didn't have to" and a kiss?
Romanticization sure is a funny thing
Oh the pitiable fools!
Cry the wise men from their yachts
Chasing checks opposed to chocolate
Their green greedy eyes reflect dollar bills and something else
An overflowing wallet
Filled with the exchange of metal
Abused by rough hands
Then dealt again
Burglaries, starvation, and war
The best hand is limited edition
And in the span of two weeks
The petals will begin to fall
From flowers that represent everlasting love
Suits will begin to shake icy hands
and cold money will recycle itself to vendors and vultures
The heart craves a fairy tale
And the eyes can't distinguish fool's gold
