[Spoken]
The Salomon Song.

[JENNY]
You saw the wise man Salomon
You know what 'came of him
To him the world seemed clear as day
He cursed the sad hour that he saw the sun
He knew that everything was dust
How great and wise was Salomon!
Watch out the world is spinning fast
The night will fall, the price we'll pay
Such wisdom's not all it's cracked up to be
So let us praise such clarity

You saw divine Cleopatra
You know what 'came of her
Two emperors died to serve her lust
She whored herself to death, yes she did
And withered into lovely dust
How beautiful great Babylon
Watch out, the world is spinning fast
The night will fall, the price we'll pay
Such beauty's not all it's cracked up to be
So let us praise sweet luxury
