[Intro]
Hold up, let's talk about gold stuff
Hold up, yeah we gon' talk about gold stuff
[Verse]
Gold medals hangin' on
Michael Phelps' collarbone
I don't need 'em, I don't need 'em, I don't need 'em
He can keep 'em, he can keep 'em, he can keep 'em
Golden Globes like candles
Lightin' up Meryl Streep's mantle
She can take 'em, she can take 'em, she can take 'em
Imma leave 'em, Imma leave 'em, Imma leave 'em
Girl, you remember that T.V. show in the late 80s?
With all them old Betty White ladies
They were golden
But you're so much golder
Imma, Imma, Imma, Imma have to show you
[Chorus]
How to spell your name correctly
G-O-L-D-E-S-T
Feel the shine from the bright lights
Said, baby you the goldest (baby you the goldest)
Fact is um
Baby I love you
Platinum, wishes it was you
No offense goldfish (no offense goldfish)
Baby you the goldest (baby you the goldest)
Baby, you are the goldest
Baby, you are the goldest
[Verse]
Gold records on the wall
Is decorating Graceland's halls
I love Elvis, Elvis, Elvis
But I ain't jealous, jealous, jealous
Golden gloves, catchin' dust
Filling up Greg Maddux's mancave (Greg who?)
Bet he has some good stories from the glory days (Bet he do)
But I'd rather have you on my résumé
Girl, you remember that ticket in that old Willy Wonka movie?
With them oompa loompas, singin' "oompa loompa"
Tell me I'm right {?}
I was right
But, it can't outshine ya
Baby, let me remind ya
[Chorus]
How to spell your name correctly
G-O-L-D-E-S-T
Feel the shine from the bright lights
Said, baby you the goldest (baby you the goldest)
Fact is um
Baby I love you
Platinum, wishes it was you
No offense goldfish (no offense goldfish)
Baby you the goldest (baby you the goldest)
[Bridge]
All the girls at the party
Glitter on their bodies
Imma have to call 'em fools
Whatever, you know I know better
Everything that glitters ain't you
All the girls at the party
Glitter on their bodies
Imma have to call 'em fools
Whatever, you know I know better
Everything that glitters ain't you
Imma show you
[Chorus]
How to spell your name correctly
G-O-L-D-E-S-T
Feel the shine from the bright lights
Said, baby you the goldest (baby you the goldest)
Fact is um
Baby I love you
Platinum, wishes it was you
No offense goldfish (no offense goldfish)
Baby you the goldest (baby you the goldest)
Baby, you are the goldest
Baby, you are the goldest
Baby, you the goldest
