Now it's all ours for the taking
The world unfolding before us
All can be achieved
With a little positivity
That's what they've told us for ages
Told us we just have to chase it
How right they will seem
When we break through improbably
Then we'll be playing for real
On a stage for maybe a meal
Going home with mountains of gold
Going home with mountains of gold
Ever the consummate skeptic
And an insufferable cynic
Never serious- I'm too numb
And too sarcastic
Why can't I sing something sincere
What is that something that I fear
Maybe I'm just old
And I'm all out of ideas
Well that's me singing for real
On a song that's totally real
For to dance on a mountain of gold
In a trance on a mountain of gold
Well I'm sure as hell not free
When I'm in debt up to my eyeballs
But I'll caterwaul for gold and lolz
And fight that shit with action
And then we'll be playing for real
On a stage that's totally real
Going home with mountains of gold
Going home with mountains of gold
