Silver Gold and Bronze

Have you ever wanted to win so much

You actually lost touch

Of what the point was

Is winning by default 

A hollow victory 

Or just collateral damage 

And easy to manage 

If your looking down on the loser in 2nd Place

Look at my face

And then look at his

This is the business model winners thrive in

That is why 1st place medals shine like Gold

And 2nd and 3rd place medals 

Are Cold and dull like Bronze
