The price we paid for our
Mistakes today
Was more mistakes
The price we paid for stealing
Gold from they
We paid with gold
There's still a lot more, never learned
My lesson
No more mistakes anymore
Gold
My skin is turning old
I don't wanna shake it
I'm dressing up
I'm dressin' up in
Gold
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old with gold
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old in gold
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old in gold
Grow old
Grow old
Grow old in gold
2 by 2 times 4
Get on the floor
Piss on the poor
How much change you lookin' for?
Hey!
It's a job, it's a natural fact, is it?
It's a job, foilly foibles, ooh
Change is my friend
Foilly foibles
I'm it again
Foilly foibles
Stuck in a ditch, hey
Foilly foibles
Without a stitch, hey, oh, oh
Foilly foibles, oh
Lifted again
Foilly foibles
Stole your friend
Foilly
The price we paid for wanting
Nothing special
Was nothing, not even the special
The price we paid for eating gold
For breakfast
Was getting fat and homely
Our skin is getting old
Ooh
Don't wanna shake it, i'm dressing it
Up in gold
Being friendly only
When gold was thrown right at me
Booed off the stage but i'm still
The one laughing
Heh
It's a job, it's a natural fact, is it?
It's a job, foilly foibles
Foilly's my friend
Foilly foibles, ooh
Do it again, hey
Foilly foibles, ooh
Do it for free, ho ho
Foilly foibles, ooh
Lie in the ditch
Foilly foibles, ooh
What can i get?
Foilly foibles, ooh
Nothing i can do, afraid
Foilly foibles, ooh
Afraid, hey!
Foilly foibles, ooh
Afraid
Foilly foibles, hey!
Afraid
Foilly foibles
