Lyrics

[00:00.70] When you got home from work
[00:04.12] You just lay on your bed
[00:08.62] Went through your pages
[00:12.04] Some things don't make sense
[00:15.34] Got to be solid to hold sway
[00:19.59] Unsoldered to win the day
[00:23.26] You're a soldier it's okay
[00:27.29] Tell yourself it's okay
[00:30.71] Spinning straw into gold
[00:37.23] Straw into gold
[00:41.39] Straw into gold
[00:46.53] All the maritime pines
[00:50.54] For sails on the horizon
[00:55.50] Closing down plays
[00:57.64] I almost bought the mandolin
[01:02.42] Illuminous squid
[01:04.52] And the knife-wielding fishermen
[01:10.37] Stationary shark
[01:13.21] Mandarin trees laden
[01:16.40] Spinning straw into gold
[01:22.84] Straw into gold
[01:26.69] Straw into gold
[01:30.93] That's rich coming from you he said
[01:37.25] You're impossible
[01:39.82] In his long oil skin coat
[01:43.12] I said You're no picnic neither
[01:47.32] Now you're no picnic neither
[01:55.07] But the day is loudening
[01:58.91] And I don't believe it
[02:02.74] The banks have all broken
[02:06.84] To cash all our chips in
[02:25.78] Freddy gave us his advice
[02:28.74] Slinging spirits to cubes of ice
[02:32.21] Says we're lumps of molasses
[02:36.83] Singing out of our asses
[02:40.05] Spinning straw into gold
[02:46.33] Straw into gold
[02:50.42] Straw into gold
[02:56.24] Gold
[02:57.98] Straw into gold
[03:03.41] And I got old and I need
[03:07.14] Wild animals got you
[03:11.15] And there's nothing more I'd like
[03:14.64] Than to have you in the room
[03:18.66] But the din here is loudening
[03:22.79] And I don't believe it
[03:26.57] Strange behind everything
[03:30.88] And it's just a matter
[03:33.82] Of loving
[03:40.36] Spinning straw into gold
[03:47.22] Straw into gold
[03:51.08] Straw into gold
[03:56.62] Gold
[03:58.52] Straw into gold
[04:04.29] Gold
[04:06.00] Straw into gold
