We took what was not our own
We lived comfortably in homes built by the hands of others
We dined at a strangers table and sipped wine from grapes we did not crush
We spent the wealth of others frivolously and without regard
Living as kings we were truly fools, on a fools errand, with nothing but poverty ahead
We lived comfortably in homes built by the hands of others
We dined at a strangers table and sipped wine from grapes we did not crush
We spent the wealth of others frivolously and without regard
Living as kings we were truly fools, on a fools errand, with nothing but poverty ahead
