Wunderhorse - Midas

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-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 a 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-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, ha, ha, ha
He's time finessing, 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-la
Midas, yeah
Midas
Midas

Midas
Midas
Midas
