Ballad


A trusted calculation

He worries about the foundation

A secret in a bar

Will open the jar

 

They say it could never happen

The institution has been misshapen

The day finally came

The ask who’s to blame

 

Families leave their houses

Spouses turn on spouses

A nation of distrust 

The world is a bust
