Golden Teeth and Silver Medals

Anybody tell you that there is no resale value

When your romance goes to hell

You better say farewell to what you thought was wealth



Ever get the feeling that the paint has started peeling

Are you staring at the ceiling of your castle

Dreaming that you're someone else?



Would you like to meet me in this song?

I've been hoping to

Would you like to come and prove me wrong?

No, I'll agree with you



Golden teeth and silver medals, beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir and minutes in a jar

That is what we got



Maybe if I had another drink

I'd see the pattern in the blinking of the traffic lights

Do you think you're happy, Nicolai?



I don't know the answer, Nina, life is like a melody

A pendulum that swings between the major and the minor

It's a lullaby



Now, I'm so glad I met you in this song

It's just a breath I'll throw

I'm so glad you're here to sing along

My voice into the flow



Golden teeth and silver medals, beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir and minutes in a jar

That is what we got



I'm a little worried that the worst is yet to come

I'm afraid they'll leave us out here melting in the sun

We'll be second best until we know we have won



But until we do we'll sing this song

'Til we know we've won

We'll sing until our need for it is gone

We'll be singing this song



Golden teeth and silver medals, beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir and minutes in a jar

That is what we got



Golden teeth and silver medals, beauty marks and scars

That is what we got

Raindrops in a reservoir and minutes in a jar

That is what we got
