his greeting
a betraying kiss—
the clink of silver
a betraying kiss—
the clink of silver
the stream laced with fool's gold—
betrayal, the truth that clings
betrayal, the truth that clings
for courting too slow
on top of Old Smokey—
a false hearted love
on top of Old Smokey—
a false hearted love

Duplicity is a deliberate deceptiveness in behavior or speech; there are many historical instances of it taking place.
Verse 1 depicts the Judas' betrayal to the Romans with his double-dealing kiss—he received 30 pieces of silver. According to the account given in the Gospel of John, Judas carried the disciples' money bag and betrayed Jesus for a bribe of "thirty pieces of silver" by identifying him with a kiss—"the kiss of Judas"—to arresting soldiers of the High Priest Caiaphas, who then turned Jesus over to Pontius Pilate's soldiers.
This moment is conveyed in various types of music according to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_kiss_of_Judas.
* The moment is represented in Bach's St Matthew Passion and other Passion settings by many composers.
* In Bob Dylan's "With God on our side," he says "Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss."
* Petra (band) had a hit in 1982 with a song called "Judas' Kiss". The song was controversial with anti-Christian rock critics for having a back-masked track before the song at a time when back masking messaging in rock albums was under public scrutiny. However, the message was a Christian one and was aimed at the critics.
* Dave Barnes, a Christian singer/songwriter, uses it in his song "On a Night Like This."
* Finnish power metal band Stratovarius describes the events around Judas betrayal from a first-person perspective in the opening song "The Kiss of Judas" from its album Visions.
* The politically progressive Canadian punk band Propagandhi references this in the song "With Friends Like These Who The F*** Needs COINTELPRO?" in the line "the crippling Judas Kiss to christen thee a sinking ship".
* The Academy Is... created a song called "Judas Kiss" about betrayal of a loved one.
* Metallica has a song entitled "The Judas Kiss" in their ninth studio album, Death Magnetic.
* Canadian rock band Triumph, used the lyric "30 Golden Pieces For The Judas Kiss", in the song Never Surrender from the album of the same name.
* U2's "Pride (In the Name of Love)" contains the lyric "one man betrayed with a kiss".
* The Hold Steady song "Citrus" has a repeating line "Lost in fog, and love, and faithless fear, I've had kisses that make Judas seem sincere"
* In Van Morrison's Days Like This he sings "When you don't get betrayed by that old Judas kiss".
* Filipino metal band Wolfgang have a song entitled Halik ni Hudas which ranslates into the kiss of Judas.
Verse 2, line 1: "fool's gold". The mineral pyrite, or iron pyrite, is an iron sulfide with the formula FeS2. This mineral's metallic luster and pale-to-normal, brass-yellow hue have earned it the nickname fool's gold due to its resemblance to gold. There is a story of an entire shipload of iron pyrite having been shipped over to England during the 1500's — the yellow stuff having been mistaken for gold.
Verse 3: betrayal of love:
On Top of Old Smoky
On top of old Smoky, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover from courting too slow
Though courting's a pleasure and parting is grief
A false-hearted lover is worse than a thief
For a thief will just rob you and take what you have
But a false-hearted lover will lead you to the grave
The grave will decay you and turn you to dust
Not one boy in a thousand a poor girl can trust
He'll hug you and kiss you and tell you more lies
Than cross-ties on a railroad or stars in the skies
Recorded by Ives
Verse 3: In the popular song, "On Top of Old Smoky" tells the simplistic story of the "false-hearted lover" who commits the ultimate betrayal—one lover runs off with a rival.
This renhai was composed in the traditional manner recommended by inventor Vaughn Seward, a Canadian poet.
Verse 2, line 1, composed first, details the placement of "fool's gold" in a stream, to deceive miners that gold is in plentiful supply. History records tales of intention and unintentional deception with fools gold. One example is the 1500's tale of "fool's gold", the mineral pyrite, or iron pyrite, when an entire shipload of iron pyrite was shipped over to England—the yellow stuff having been mistaken for gold.
Verse 2, line 2, composed second, "betrayal, the truth that clings" is an abstract philosophical phrase. The image of clinging is haunting and it is documented in the historical images presented in Verse 1, Verse 2, line 1, and Verse 3.
Verse 3, composed last, depicts the betrayal in a romantic love triangle—the "true love" of one individual us forsaken for instant physical gratification (implied actions never directly stated in the song—gee whiz, what did you expect!).
Verse 2: 1—"fools gold" 2—"betrayal...clings"
Verse 1: Judas' betrayal of Christ
Verse 3: Old Smokey Mountain love betrayal
The Verse 2, line 2 word "betrayal" functions like a pivot word, allowing the presentation of three examples of "betrayal or deception" in each of the three Verses.
