Cornucopia
In a lavish land of bountiful luxury
designer clothes lace their debonair
supersonic dreams celebrate wealth
magnates in mansions and fancy cars
wine cellars and buffet, silk ties in style
usurped soul in vault, slave to the dime
booming business in stocks and bonds
fortune and fame, luck of golden diadem.
abundant worries, like poor and penniless
spectacular elite, in an ocean of emptiness
It's more and more money, in a cornucopia
million dollar smiles, hiding plentiful phobia.
