[Verse]

You walk in with your tailored grin

A silk tie that hides the sin

You talk of wealth like it's your crown

But who's the king when no one's around

[Verse 2]

Your words drip gold but sound so thin

A hollow echo beneath your skin

You brag of riches we can't see

But paper castles burn so easily

[Chorus]

Oh you’re the wealthy scoundrel

Aren’t you proud

Shouting your name to a silent crowd

You bought the world but lost the spark

Rich in the day

Poor in the dark

[Verse 3]

You toss out coins like they’re a joke

A puff of smoke with every poke

You think you’re better

Above the grind

But real treasure’s what you leave behind

[Bridge]

The workers whisper

The scoundrel’s tale

A mighty yacht with a tattered sail

They laugh in shadows

Their hands worn bare

For your kingdom crumbles and they don’t care

[Chorus]

Oh you’re the wealthy scoundrel

Aren’t you proud

Shouting your name to a silent crowd

You bought the world but lost the spark

Rich in the day

Poor in the dark

[Chorus]

Oh you’re the wealthy scoundrel

Aren’t you proud

Shouting your name to a silent crowd

You bought the world but lost the spark

Rich in the day

Poor in the dark
