The Golden Coin
(I'm your hopes and dreams)
I'm your hopes and dreams
I'm the lust of your creation
I'm your one chance to succeed
I'm the shortcut to salvation
I'll make you itch, make you a fiend
Make you use all means
Make you plot, make you scheme
Make you kill, make you scream
Her vow is your hope
Your wish is her air
The binding terms
To reinforce each other
Breathe for one another
The secret's untold
Your luck's on hold
Then she tells you "Make a wish!"
But if your wish comes true
Are you living in a nightmare or dream?
All you touch turns to gold
You're a modern day alchemist
Drawn to and driven by the golden coin
The golden coin
The golden coin
(I'm your hopes and dreams)
Drawn to and driven by the golden coin
(I'm your hopes and dreams
I'm the lust of your creation
I'm your one chance to succeed
I'm the shortcut to salvation)
Fuel to the engine
Fuel to the hype
Makes the world keep spinning
Now what really counts
Now what really counts
The numbers on the bottom line
The scent of money
It's like poison to the mind
Drop a golden coin
In the average crowd
Then behold the value
Of humanity's pride
Then behold the value
Of humanity's pride
Then behold the value
Of humanity's pride
It's like vultures on a carcass
Like flies on shit
Who said "gold ain't magnetic"?
Attracts you, makes you lose your grip
And even if she's ugly
You'll be riding this bitch
And though your ditch's growing deeper
Keep digging the pit
You see it's buried alive
In our fucking DNA
By this, and for this
We're doomed to be enslaved
(I'm the shortcut to salvation)
You're my sword and shield
You're the tongue of every nation
You're the force to whom they'll kneel
Your my one-way-street devotion
I let you in, wipe me out
Let you shut me down
Let you hear my vow
Let you take me now
She's your all and nothing
Always on your mind
(But only in your mind)
It's a trap and your fooled
Shook the hand of a leper
With a velvet glove
Beautiful fairy
She told you to "Make a wish!"
But if your wish comes true
Are you living in a nightmare or dream?
All you touch turns to gold
You're a modern day alchemist
Drawn to and driven by the golden coin
The golden coin
The golden coin
Drawn to and driven by the golden coin
It's in the nature of greed
Makes you feed the insatiable
This human gene
Apocalyptic code mutation
She's the rider on a white horse
You choose to believe in
She's your longed for Messiah
Makes eyes blind to reason
She's diguised as a muse
But she's wicked
She swears she will make things possible
Then leaves you addicted
Whether business man or selling dope
Crackhead or CEO
Worker or a classy whore
All still look for more
I'm your hopes and dreams
I'm the lust of your creation
I'm your one chance to succeed
I'm the shortcut to salvation
I'll make you itch, make you a fiend
Make you use all means
Make you plot, make you scheme
Make you kill, make you scream
Her vow is your hope
Your wish is her air
The binding terms
To reinforce each other
Breathe for one another
The secret's untold
Your luck's on hold
Then she tells you "Make a wish!"
But if your wish comes true
Are you living in a nightmare or dream?
All you touch turns to gold
You're a modern day alchemist
Drawn to and driven by the golden coin
The golden coin
The golden coin

Drawn to and driven by the golden coin
