Fools Gold

I have seen the look in their eyes when in the Jewelry store; gazing at the giant rocks in a trance...

I was always curious as to who the very first person was to put a price on a shiny piece of stone. And I wonder how long ago that was. And how many people did it take for it to become a permanent idea in everyones heads, the value of a piece of stone.

Because that's where the value is.

It's in your head.

Anyway...
After watching the movie "Blood Diamond" a few years ago, I was inspired to write this tune.

Done on garage band with a Baby Taylor acoustic, a strat and an electric bass. All done in a days work.
