Inside the Heart of Gold
Rich men poor men look at your lives
I can tell you it’s no surprise
That where you’ve gone and where you’ve been
Is not in the middle of the lion’s den
For you have set yourselves apart
Into the midst of the lion’s heart
Where there is gold that’s much more pure
Than any rich man can secure
