In a system where hearts are attached
To coins and papers,
As a novel commodity is hatched,
The cords tighten up,
And bring a people close,
To whom novelty and inventions
Matter more than the lives
That are each day lost
By the crimes of the same few
That fund those commodities
To entertain the hearts of coin and paper
With the sole aim of diversion
Whereto the cords are attached.
