Spoken word
I really believed that you were solid gold
Should've checked the goods to see it wasn't a fake that I was sold
Should've taken my time, slowed down and waited
'Cause at best, darling, you were only gold-plated
I was mistaken thinking this kind of gold was a limited resource
The only thing limited about you was your fuckin' remorse
To understand the complexities of you
There ought to be a course, 'cause that ain't something I was taught
I really believed that you were solid gold
Should've checked the goods to see it wasn't a fake that I was sold
I should've taken my time, slowed down and waited
Cause' at best, darling, you were only gold-plated
I thought that you were where I placed my value
When actually the only thing I value is the lesson I learnt from you
How hadn't I already learnt it was too good to be true
Wait till I find that 24 carat then I might pursue
I really believed that you were solid gold
Should've checked the goods to see it wasn't a fake that I was sold
I should've taken my time, slowed down and waited
'Cause at best, darling, you were only gold-plated
