Barenaked Ladies Golden Boy song lyrics

Hey, golden boy

Don't let the darkness in to take you away from yourself

Nobody else, there's nobody left to make you run

Somebody new, maybe it's you, only bereft of meaning

One of these days

You're gonna wake up wondering how it went down

Then in a daze, you're gonna make up something

And wallow around in your room

Maybe it's soon

Or maybe it won't be for some time

I hope you'll be, thinking of me

And I hope you won't be lonely

Hang your head but don't let your hair fall out

Just hang your hat at somebody else's house

Game, set and match

I'll have to give that to you, you are the man

Wait, there's a catch

Everyone sees right through you

But that was the plan all along

Just tell me I'm wrong

Tell me you wanted something else

You entered the code that made you explode

Now I hope you won't be lonely anymore

Hang your head but don't let your hair fall out

Just hang your hat at somebody else's house

No, no, no, you're not a quitter

So, don't, don't, don't, don't you be bitter

Go, go, go where you glitter away

Hang your head but don't let your hair fall out

Just hang your hat at somebody else's house

Hang your head but don't let your hair fall out

Just hang your hat at somebody else's house

Somebody else's house

Somebody else's house
