Copper, let us take you to a furnace where we`ll break you, fire`s so big and
pretty, you could cry,
as a buckle, you could ask me what was wrong with me before -
did I need the silver to be suitable?
Copper, I have a use for you, it`s easy work and it suits you,
dazzled dirty beauty, you must know
Copper is a conductor and makes for decent cooking,
dazzled by your beauty still, you know,
plated or anodized, you even fool a layman`s eyes,
presentable though you might be, it`s unwise to try to fight me.
Copper - you`ll never be gold. *David Burrows
