Temple of the Silver Spoon

Gold Cadillac with a pool and spa
Secret handshake with the Grand Poohbah
Dinner at the White House dine with spies
Snipers on the roof and eyes in the sky

Armed guards in disguise a puffed-out chest
Behind bulletproof glass with bulletproof vests

You’re so rich but you’re so poor
A billionaire behind a golden door
A high-tech tomb a self-made doom
Chained to the temple of the silver spoon

French maids ready for your every need
Doctors, cars, cosmetic surgery
No privacy when you go to sit
Reporters on your lawn filming every bit

Diamonds on the soles of your snake-skin boots
A prisoner of fortune just low hanging fruit

You’re so rich but you’re so poor
A billionaire behind a golden door
A high-tech tomb a self-made doom
Chained to the temple of the silver spoon

It’s a long way to the top but it’s a long way to fall
When the skeletons emerge behind the closet door
When greed and corruption become wholesale
And it’s the final nail that puts you all in jail

Cage with the golden bars
