Glitters Like Gold Songtext
von The Cribs

It′s so strange seeming
Like a friends mothers perfume
That you can be what you want.
Anointed genius, poets, good fucks
Yeah you can be what you want
Anyway

Getting the feeling, spent all my splendour long ago
And though I rarely see it
Your other side glitters like gold
It never shows that my

Mind will always fight me
With both sides claiming victory
Kiss my stiff upper lip and forever release me
Vanity dance around me
Whatever you think about me
I'm the whale beneath the ship
Who would ever believe me?


Should I say something?
It seems they′d like me better
If I just sing nonsense
Anyway

Never written honest, though sometimes I think I should
But to share these feelings
Would only hurt the ones I love
They know enough that my

Mind will always fight me
With both sides claiming victory
Kiss my stiff upper lip and forever release me
Vanity dance around me
Whatever you think about me
I'm the whale beneath the ship
Who would ever believe me?

I guess I got what you wanted
A naive streak that I won't shake
Keeps me cold


My mind will always fight me
With both sides claiming victory
Kiss my stiff upper lip and forever release me
Vanity dance around me
Whatever you think about me
I′m not half the kid I used to be
Who would ever believe me?
