The Golden Age

Written by C Hues

                The box we watched was full of fakes
		Mobster and ad man, meth cook and beat cop
		The Golden Age bred silver tongued snakes
		Yet we tuned in and could not stop

		From Roger to Don
		From Chris to Tony
		From McNulty to Stringer
		They all were phony
	
		We saw them kill, torture and steal
		Just hoping they would come around
		We waited and waited and still
		Their souls stayed lost and never found

		From Roger to Don
		From Chris to Tony
		From McNulty to Stringer
		Souls lost and lonely
