The Emerald S

Bleeding gold from broken veins

Cut with hot knives, and whips, and chains

Sapphires dropped from swollen eyes

To kiss the awnings that bring these lies

The Emerald S gleams night and day

To wash all our cares away

Pulsing green with fantasy

A life of heaven’s luxury

(but cant be better than MTV)

Flashing brightly in the night

Under darkened studio spotlight

Guns flash and bash our brains to dust

To bring us soceity’s new must

Gold ridden chains and platinum rings

A million other shiny things

In our teeth and in our hair

To make evil haters all beware

The Emerald S gleams night and day

To wash all our cares away

Pulsing green with fantasy

A life of heaven’s luxury

(but cant be better than MTV)

Mystified and petrified

By the thought of suicide

Murder written on the wall

With credit to your local mall

Brings the money in the bank

Super in the Chevy tank

MP3s that spew out hate

Hate your brother, ain’t that great

But the only thing that still stays true

The Emerald S from me to you

The Emerald S gleams night and day

To wash all our cares away

Pulsing green with fantasy

A life of heaven’s luxury

(but cant be better than MTV)
