the circle of friends

 

When in power and wealth

The circle of friends will come

Smiling and laughter sharing drinks and meals

Rubbing shoulders in the lime light


A person can stand tall

The groupies will come

Every desire can be had

Just a hand movement


When in power and wealth

The troupe will come to share

Bathe in the publicity and fame

Telling everyone that's the man


The old timers will say

Life is a game

A chess board to play

Winners will take it all


When power and wealth gone

Suddenly the silence in the room

The circle of friends all disappear

Standing alone only to fend yourself
