First Line: Maria blanca here we hold
Last Line: "the couple: it's made of gold, and will not break"
Subject(s): Play
The Circle: Maria Blanca here we hold
In pillars of silver and gold.
Maria Blanca: Who keeps walking around my walls?
Fat Man: The old fat man in overalls.
The Circle: What does he plan?
Fat Man: To break a pillar if I can
And get Maria Blanca.
The Circle: Who is able to break one?
Why is this pillar so hard to shake?
The Couple: It's made of gold, and will not break.
