(chorus)
there's a big hole in the ground
there's a big fight all around,
there's a big hole in the ground,
for the fools gold
and everything is precious, and everything is clear
i don't want to have you just to hold you near
maybe we will realize when we grow old
that life is worth much more than any gold
(repeat chorus)
and i have seen these people
i have seen their grief
they have a big desire to feed
but sometimes i see them, these lovers of gold
i'd like to throw them in and bury them in that hole
(repeat chorus)
i just hope we realize when we grow old
that life is worth much more than any gold
just big fight,
in a big hole,
for the fools
