Weight In Gold

Story Behind The Song

Ex-girlfriend flying helicopters around from club to club in the UK, wonderful girl, fantastic at being a socialite, but ultimately, and she knew it, was leading a life that would eventually end up in tears. Inspirational girlfriend, who taught me about sexual diseases and trust.

Song Description

Weight in Gold is about Girls who believe they've got it all, but have realistically sold their souls to get there, so end up with nothing except material wealth, hence the irony of Weight in Gold - but it's all tongue in cheek, as after all, who are we to judge if that's a good or a bad thing?

Mood Ecstatic, Restless Similar Artists The Clash

Lyrics

HEY YOU on borrowed time
Spending it when its neccessary
Like Gold you shine
Slow down, I'll give you some of mine

Dig in and act all nice
Let the people see you're so caring
Painfully act polite
Ok - so be it if it saves face
Can't afford you looking out of place

CHORUS
Worth your weight in gold
You'll sink like a stone
All you'll ever own
Well you bought it with your heart and your soul

It's not the only time
That you've betrayed what you're really thinking
Oh Girl it's suicide
OK what's preying on your mind

You never get it right
Find yourself in awkward positions
you Live from lie to lie
You're much more interested in getting high
Oh darling you look so messed up tonight

CHORUS

you don't know where your head is - do ya babe
The kind of girl we like - you're all the same
oh classy ladies - with no sense of shame
I'll see you later - don't forget my name
