Ring around the rosie
Pocket full of posie
Ashes, ashes
We all fall down
With the kingdom ablaze
We averted our gaze
By hiding our eyes
When the pillars came down
We heard not a sound
From the city of lies
Nero's sang the same song they'd been singing
While hero's shot in vain their arrows slinging
Then the king and his knaves
The fools and the slaves
Kept pouring our wine
And we knew this should stop
But we drank every drop
Every grape from the vine
Barren grew the land between the oceans
And sorcerer's could not conjure magic potions
House of cards cried the child
We are tribes running wild
It was you, it was me
It was us, can't we see
When our green become our need
All will bleed
So we mustn't blame fate
When fools legislate
Without any plan
And we dare not ignore
The devil in store
From the nature of man
The future lies in state with tragic endings
While we still contemplate our happy endings
House of cards cried the child
We are tribes running wild
Was it you? Was it me?
It was us, can't you see?
Who cares if the stars and sun don't shine
I've got mine
Ubi est mea
Deus est pecunia
House of cards, this malaise
Shall we dance? A kingdom ablaze
Was it me? Was it you?
It was us, true is true
Who cares if rivers turn to brine
I've got mine
The Latin phrase before the final chorus roughly translates to "Where is my money?"
