Golden Teeth And Silver Medals

Anybody tell you

That there is no resale value

When your romance goes to hell you

Better say farewell to what

you thought was wealth

Ever get the feeling

That the paint has started peeling

Are you staring at the

ceiling of your castle

Dreaming that you're

someone else

Would you like to meet me in this song?

(I've been hoping to)

Would you like to come

and prove me wrong?

(No, I'll agree with you)

Golden teeth and silver medals

Beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir

And minutes in a jar

That is what we got

Maybe if I had another drink

I'd see the pattern in the blinking

Of the traffic lights

Do you think you're happy, Nicolai?

I don't know the answer Nina

Life is like a melody

A pendulum that swings

Between the major and the minor

It's a lullaby

I'm so glad I met you in this song

(It's just a breath I'll throw)

I'm so glad you're here to sing along

(My voice into the flow)

Golden teeth and silver medals

Beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir

And minutes in a jar

That is what we got

I'm a little worried that the worst is yet to come

I'm afraid they'll leave us out here

Melting in the sun

We'll be second best until

we know we have won

But until we do we'll sing this song

(Till we know we've won)

We'll sing until our need for it is gone

(We'll be singing this song)

Golden teeth and silver medals

Beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir

And minutes in a jar

That is what we got
