lyrics

Verse 1:
Ya turn the lights down low
So no one can see what ya lookin for
Just like an UFO
Slippin in and out
So nobody know
Ya go and risk it all
But it won’t be you
Who will take the throne
It’s not how the ending goes.

Chorus:
If it glitters it’s not gold
It’s not a green light to go to go to go
If it glitters it’s not gold
It’s not a green light to go to go to go

Verse 2:
You, ya build it up stonewall
So no one can see who ya lying for
Just like a domino
Watch it all come down
Tumble to the floor
You wanna go and sell us all
And you think you deserve the crown
It’s not how the story goes.
It’s not how

Chorus:
If it glitters it’s not gold
It’s not a green light to go to go to go
If it glitters it’s not gold
It’s not a green light to go to go to go



Bridge:
You wanna room full of riches
You wanna room full of bitches
On a leash yeah yeah
Got me down on my knees yeah yeah
Suck a big bag of gees yeah yeah
Waiting for the big release yeah yeah
You only want me on my knees yeah yeah


Kill all the preachers
You wanna
Hide all the snitches for the beast yeah yeah
Kill all the preachers
You wanna
Hide all the snitches for the beast yeah yeah
Makin’ runs for the beast yeah yeah
There be forever no peace yeah yeah
Yeah the sun sets in the east yeah yeah
Yeah makin’ runs for the beast

Outro:

Hey we’re in the wild wild west
No we won’t undress
For nobody

Light a cigarette
No we won’t confess
For nobody
Put a mark on my head
I know you want me dead

We’re in the wild wild west.
