Res golden boys lyrics

Why are you selling dreams of who you wish you could be 

 A prince in all of the magazines 

 They'd have no words for the man I've seen 

 Talk real fast 'fore they see your face 

 

 And would they love you if they knew all the things we know 

 We've got these images 

 We need them to be true 

 Not ready to believe we're no more insecure than you 

 

 [Chorus:]

 But then there're girls like me who sit appauled by what we've seen 

 We know the truth about you 

 Now you're the prince of all the magazines 

 That is a dangerous thing 

 

 But would they love you if they knew all the things that we know 

 Those Golden Boys 

 All a fraud don't believe their show 

 Would they love you if they knew all the things that we know 

 

 Golden Boy life ain't a video 

 

 Place you in these robes and tell you you're the greatest man 

 And you believe and play your cards 

 Got dealt a winning hand 

 Don't you get tired of the show 

 The kissin' ass of all the people that you wanna know 

 

 When I was young I thought you had it won 

 I saw you on T.V. you made life look fun 

 But then years go by and people grow 

 I realize it's all a freak show 

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Girls like me don't need no bubblin' mindstate thrown in my face 

 The way you goin' ain't gonna be no stroll in the sunshine 

 Can't turn it back now baby you gone and past that line 

 So give it on up now 

 What you gonna do 

 

 [Chorus]
