Fools Gold

[Intro]


Should now be feeling happy
Since I have a fine new job
An wife an family
I m the model man who s made it

Every month a thousand bucks!
I should thank the Lord I have it

And my success as an artist
Should be proud I ve got a Chevy

I m the kind of guy that lucks!
So, I should now be glad as glad
With my brand new home in the best quarter
After starving for two years

In this of s of towns!
Should be proud of being socially

Respected and even feared
But I think this kind of success

Is for circuses and for clowns!

You know, I should be vain and proud
To have won my place in life
But I must wow I m dazed

And I just don t know where I am at

Because it was so easy pickings
So I ask myself "and now"?

I have so many worlds to conquer

And I know I cannot be even satisfied with that

I should be happy God has granted me
Sundays that I wanted
With my family to play the father

To play the husband?and display
But a monumental bore

You will find I am and more
Don t you feel I m happy and easy

At the end of every day!
Stand against a looking glass
And see yourself?what an ass
God and devil took to mass

On ten percent use of your brain
You are doctor of philosophy

Priest or cooper, what a topper
Don t you wish you could grow young

And start it all again

You won t find me gladly sittin
On a throne made of my savings
In my heavily-mortgaged home

Waiting for my coming death

Yeah, for two wonders gravitating flying saucers

I m awaiting, yes, I m awaiting
At my neighbor s fence

Hoping and looking across the heath! Yeah!

I that, you won t you find me gladly sitting
On a throne made of my savings
In my heavily-mortgaged home

Waiting for my coming death

Yeah, for two wonders gravitating flying saucers, saucers

I m awaiting, yes, I m awaiting
At my neighbor s fence

Hoping and looking across the heath!
