there are no orange suits


There are no orange suits
The power couple will not feel the blues
They think they can wriggle free
Walking out from the jaws of sharks

They still can smile
The wrinkles of many lines
They may say they have sleepless nights
Dreaming of Bamboo River ringing their names

They posted bail
A total of $6.5 millions
There must be a catch
The bluesy men must investigate

At night they may hear
The ringing toll of Bamboo River
The distance drumbeats calling
They toast the bread feeling the blue

The story of their lives
The fall from grace; the power gone
Now they will feel the ordinary
The Bamboo River ringing their names

The toll of misdeeds
It can’t be hidden anymore
Out in the open the sins for all to read
The power couple will wear the orange suits
