Lyrics

(chorus)

There's a big hole in the ground

There's a big fight all around,

There's a big hole in the ground,

For the fools gold

And everything is precious, and everything is clear

I don't want to have you just to hold you near

Maybe we will realize when we grow old

That life is worth much more than any gold

(REPEAT CHORUS)

And I have seen these people

I have seen their grief

They have a big desire to feed

But sometimes I see them, these lovers of gold

I'd like to throw them in and bury them in that hole

(REPEAT CHORUS)

I just hope we realize when we grow old

That life is worth much more than any gold

Just big fight,

In a big hole,

For the fools
