Jealousy



Jealousy: the state or feeling of being jealous


Head high shall thys  head stay
For the green eyed monster is still in dismay
His children, stolen by age
Their chariots hold their verdant gems as in the war they engage

Head high shall thys stay
For the green eyed monster is still in dismay
Under our belts the emerald must remain
For nae envy must remain

Head high shall thys stay
For the green eyed monster is still in dismay
In thous brain change has occured
For the jar has been stolen i have heard

Panick has erupted
Hes out of his cove
Jealous, gone to find his children
The war has taken them as his own
Jealousy has broke loose from her cage
Foe the green eyed monster is now in rage
