Midas Songtext
von Wunderhorse

The voice inside the suit came crawling down the telephone
Somewhere between a chessboard and a nursery rhyme
I heard the rattlesnake shaking in his invitation
And the whites of his knuckles on the other end of the line

Midas, yeah
Midas, la-la-la-la-la
Midas, yeah
Midas

Stepped inside his office and the whole place seemed to shiver, he said
"Come here, a little closer, boy, come on, don′t be shy"
I searched to find the fracture in his tombstone facelift
And he fixed me with the coldness of the kingdom in his eyes


Midas, yeah
Midas, la-la-la-la-la
Midas, yeah
Midas

He said, "Come on, kid
You think we got a deal, yeah?"
Threw his head back like a pelican and straightened his tie
Each time they're askin′, you're making me kinda nervous
And with a click of his silvered fingers, I was falling through the sky

Midas, yeah
Midas, la-la-la-la-la
Midas, yeah
Midas

Midas
