Diamonds is gold |
|
And the ocean is a lake |
|
That mountains just a hill |
|
Those buildings are fake |
|
Water tastes like pennies |
|
Christmas tastes like june |
|
The city tastes like gasoline |
|
And the lies all taste like truth |
|
He ain't your lover |
|
He ain't your friend |
|
That scarecrow's not your father |
|
Them cars ain't the wind |
|
Oh lord how you shine to me |
|
Oh god how you glow to me |
|
My fortune is made of nickels |
|
Kings are shaking dimes |
|
In their pockets as they stalk the allies waiting for their time |
|
The wars are fought for silent trophies |
|
And ladies fake the news |
|
Caking up their cold sores while the cleaner steals my suit |
|
You can't count on taxes |
|
But your debt is up and gone |
|
Left us hear to fade away |
|
Sing a wrinkled songs |
|
Oh lord how you shine to me |
|
Oh god how you glow to me |
|
Oh lord how she shines to me |
|
Oh god how she glows to me |
