Sunset Rubdown - Magic Vs Midas lyrics
[Sunset Rubdown - Magic Vs Midas lyrics]
Would you say that you wish you
Were worse than you are?
Would you say that you wish you
Were worse than you are?
See, you made up a list
Of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
When you said that you wish you
Were worse than you are
Hey you, with the gold which you
Keep, or which keeps you, in place
Do you recoil from it's jealous
Green and copper taste?
Oh, do you love to dance
With it hanging like some hula dress
So lightly off your waist?
Was it magic or Midas that touched you?
And by magic, I mean trickery and by Midas
I mean faith
By magic, I mean trickery and by Midas
I mean faith
But the sister speaks of trickery! Is your
Worth the work of the Midas touch?
Do you close your eyes while you're dancing
The same you close your eyes
In your lover's clutches?
How dare I speak of trickery
I am not bestowed with the Midas touch
I don't close my eyes while
I'm dancing the same
Way I close my eyes in my lover's clutches
How dare I speak of trickery
When the wild things singing
Are pulling their sham?
You can follow the lead of the
Jackal to see where I am
You can follow the lead of
The jackal who wait's for
The kill to be made by a mightier hand
You made up a list of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
You made up a list of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
Ba dum ba dum oh oh oh oh oh ba dum
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
When you said that you wish you
Were worse than you are
Ba dum ba dum oh oh oh oh oh ba dum
And you made up a list
Of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
When you said that you wish you
Were worse than you are
And I follow the lead of the
Jackal to see where you are
Were worse than you are?
Would you say that you wish you
Were worse than you are?
See, you made up a list
Of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
When you said that you wish you
Were worse than you are
Hey you, with the gold which you
Keep, or which keeps you, in place
Do you recoil from it's jealous
Green and copper taste?
Oh, do you love to dance
With it hanging like some hula dress
So lightly off your waist?
Was it magic or Midas that touched you?
And by magic, I mean trickery and by Midas
I mean faith
By magic, I mean trickery and by Midas
I mean faith
But the sister speaks of trickery! Is your
Worth the work of the Midas touch?
Do you close your eyes while you're dancing
The same you close your eyes
In your lover's clutches?
How dare I speak of trickery
I am not bestowed with the Midas touch
I don't close my eyes while
I'm dancing the same
Way I close my eyes in my lover's clutches
How dare I speak of trickery
When the wild things singing
Are pulling their sham?
You can follow the lead of the
Jackal to see where I am
You can follow the lead of
The jackal who wait's for
The kill to be made by a mightier hand
You made up a list of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
You made up a list of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
Ba dum ba dum oh oh oh oh oh ba dum
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
When you said that you wish you
Were worse than you are
Ba dum ba dum oh oh oh oh oh ba dum
And you made up a list
Of your luckiest stars
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
And you made me familiar to you in the dark
When you said that you wish you
Were worse than you are
And I follow the lead of the
Jackal to see where you are
