The Midas Touch

The Midas touch is everywhere, everywhere

Your just not the same

When I turn you to gold

Like stories of old

The Midas touch is in me now, in me now

But how do I feel, when I'm torn in two

Between gold and you, gold and you

The boy with the Midas touch

Turning us all to gold

Only by touching us, gold by feeling us

There's no escape from those take

The lifeblood of the people

You'll never be a king, my friend

You'll never be

Heaven sent, but hell bent, hell bent

You're just a child with the strength of many

Your head's on a penny

Lonely as sin, no riches within

No riches within

In love with the girl who works in your kitchen

You're leaving her itching for more

But she won't let you touch her

She won't let you kiss her

So, she'll never be yours

The boy with the Midas touch

Turning us all to gold

Only by touching us, gold by feeling us

There's no escape from those take

The lifeblood of the people

You'll never be a king, my friend

You'll never be

The boy with the Midas touch

There's no escape from those take

The lifeblood of the people

You'll never be a king my friend, never be

You'll never be king
