Why are you selling dreams of who you wish you could be
|
A prince in all of the magazines
|
They'd have no words for the man I've seen
|
Talk real fast 'fore they see your face
|
|
And would they love you if they knew all the things we know
|
We've got these images
|
We need them to be true
|
Not ready to believe we're no more insecure than you
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But then there're girls like me who sit appauled by what we've seen
|
We know the truth about you
|
Now you're the prince of all the magazines
|
That is a dangerous thing
|
|
But would they love you if they knew all the things that we know
|
Those Golden Boys
|
All a fraud don't believe their show
|
Would they love you if they knew all the things that we know
|
|
Golden Boy life ain't a video
|
|
Place you in these robes and tell you you're the greatest man
|
And you believe and play your cards
|
Got dealt a winning hand
|
Don't you get tired of the show
|
The kissin' ass of all the people that you wanna know
|
|
When I was young I thought you had it won
|
I saw you on T.V. you made life look fun
|
But then years go by and people grow
|
I realize it's all a freak show
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Girls like me don't need no bubblin' mindstate thrown in my face
|
The way you goin' ain't gonna be no stroll in the sunshine
|
Can't turn it back now baby you gone and past that line
|
So give it on up now
|
What you gonna do
|
|
[Chorus]
|
