[00:00.74] |
They line up in droves |
[00:05.03] |
Bare their teeth, put on a show |
[00:09.94] |
You're cashing on their dreams |
[00:14.68] |
Your checkbook sights their hopes |
[00:19.77] |
They'll bleed if you ask |
[00:24.09] |
Stop breathing if the same |
[00:28.76] |
You're playing with your food |
[00:33.73] |
Reeling in your pray |
[00:38.56] |
And it all turns gold, gold, gold |
[00:43.20] |
Everything you lay your hand upon |
[00:45.39] |
You know just what the people want |
[00:47.68] |
They're sold, sold, sold |
[00:52.01] |
Everything they have close and tied |
[00:56.24] |
Throw away in the heat of the stage lights |
[01:06.73] |
They're buying for your time |
[01:11.60] |
Pressing you to hear |
[01:15.71] |
Take advantage of the desperation |
[01:20.60] |
Say come back in a year |
[01:25.37] |
They put their lives on hold |
[01:30.11] |
Finding every day |
[01:34.82] |
So that they may return |
[01:39.58] |
Only to be tamed away |
[01:44.63] |
And it all turns gold, gold, gold |
[01:48.11] |
Everything you lay your hand upon |
[01:51.32] |
You know just what the people want |
[01:54.29] |
They're sold, sold, sold |
[01:58.22] |
Everything they have close and tied |
[02:01.22] |
Throw away in the heat of the stage lights |
[02:13.62] |
And I get that it's quite enticing |
[02:16.50] |
The lights of the stage are so inviting |
[02:22.71] |
But the lights are packed in, the season's over |
[02:29.23] |
And they lost all their credibility |
[02:35.82] |
And now they have find their new feet |
[02:41.78] |
Kicking themselves for trying, trying to compete |
[02:48.24] |
And it all turns gold, gold, gold |
[02:52.79] |
Everything you lay your hand upon |
[02:54.75] |
You know just what the people want |
[02:57.79] |
They're sold, sold, sold |
[03:02.48] |
Everything they have close and tied |
[03:04.97] |
Throw away in the heat of the stage lights |
[03:08.44] |
