Golden Devils

[Intro]
A couple golden lonely devils
Reachin' out for wantin' food
But only fools feed golden devils
So watch yourself or you'll be out of you

[Verse 1]
It's your birthday
Happy birthday
May this day bring all your night's best scenes come true
It's your birthday
Happy birthday
To those stars full of eyes, trapped simian cries
From noise-slinging monkeys at curbside

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause we're forever boys in corsets
Growing closer to our choices
Hangin' feathers in the closet
To the drumming of mom's bracelets

[Chorus]
So sing on
Like you mean it
Like you mean it
Sing on
Now that you know it too

'Cause everyone goes through a goldrush or two
With the devils peddling shovels for their due
But the song goes on long after we're through
Doing the worst we can do

[Verse 2]
And you said "yeah, but,"
"That was then, this is now"
With that blind evil Rapunzel poured down their mouths
And now that we've spun around the sun again
The night's best scenes are short-sigh stories once again

[Pre-Chorus]
And now more than ever we're boys in corsets
Crawling spirals towards those choices
Trying to pry the closet open
With a crowbar made of bracelets

[Chorus]
And we'll sing on (Sing on)
Like we need to (Sing on, sing)
Because we do
We'll sing on (Sing on)
Another dream or two (Sing on)
And score one more for the follies of our youth
A devil will peddle anything for its due
And the song goes on long after we're through
Doing the worst we can do

[Bridge]
And it goes on and on
So honey, hold on, hold on
Yeah, it goes on and on
So honey, hold on, hold on
Hold on
We're just gettin' to the good part
We're just gettin' to the good part

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
The finest gift a hand-me-down
This foolish, hungry heart
Singing along

A couple golden lonely devils
Reachin' out for wantin' food
