"The Fool's Gold" lyrics
"The Fool's Gold"
What'll you do if you run out of road
I'll see you again in the next episode
I'll see you again in the next cartoon
You had your say and you emptied the room
The fool's gold is bought and sold
Until his truth becomes a song
Don't take too long
Getting high on the ends of the sweepings of the floor
Insanity isn't just a metaphor
I wore sunglasses in me hometown once
Then a window was rolled and someone shouted out dunce!
Do you think you're somebody yeah a big rockstar?
Sure then he sped off laughing in his shitheap car
The fool's gold is bought and sold
Until his truth becomes a song
Don't get me wrong
Getting high on the ends of the sweepings of the floor
Ah you can't be sure
What'll you do if you run out of road
I'll see you again in the next episode
I'll see you again in the next cartoon
Ah you had your say and you emptied the room

Roam lonely over sea air

You'll call me on your telephone
