Lyrics
The Gold Medal
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So what were you expecting
Every song has a perfect ending
But that's not good enough
Not good enough for you
I thought you opened up your gates
You claim that everyone relates
What was I thinking when I thought
That meant me too
I'll take note
Put on my coat
Leave you to read what I wrote
So sorry you never wanted me
But that's how you made me want the gold medal!
Cheer on the circus clowns
"This is the best of the towns"
What did you get from them
That you couldn?t get from me?
It's where I got my start
But not where I left my heart
I take that with me
Now I've seen whats underneath
