Kingdom of Nothing

He rules the world in an Armani suite and tie
Meetings, aquisitions, companies to buy
Hedge funds, stock options, billions in the making
A financial collapse, hostile take over, more for the taking

A new BMW, another throne, valet parked with the other ten at home
On the cell every second of the way, can't drive myself, using the limo today
Away from the big city he heads through the gates
Pulling up to his multi million estate his chauffer awaits
"the maids are done cleaning, you're schedule is all booked"
"dinner is ready too, made by your favorite cook"
Teleconferencing from his lounge, he is willing and able
He could feed a family of six with the scraps from the table

Another big day, another million in the bank
"Chauffer, did you put $200 in the Hummer gas tank?"
Big city, bright lights, drinks are on me
Clubbing at the hot spots, no cover charge, it's free
Hundreds of people, fake smiles, kinda funny
You know they only like you for your status and money

Back to the mansion, a long night of fun.
But the home is empty, no sound, no one
He gazes at the rare paintings, the marble, the gold
There's no one around, to talk to, or hold
Surrounded by everything his money could buy
He folds his arms, lays down his head, and begins to cry

A huge oak desk, that is his throne
With all his great wealth, he is scared and alone
He doesn't know the way, he needs someone to take his hand
His kingdom is nothing, it has crumbled to sand
