Well they've made a golden idol

Of the girl you used to be

Hangin' bangles on your branches

Like a lonely Christmas tree

An' yeah they've dressed you fit for

Killin' in your thrillin' new disguise

Nailin' artificial spangles to

The diamonds in your eyes

In that golden coach that turns into a bed

You better make it gal before

You wake up dead

'Cause they'll paint your burnin'

Beauty with a coat of shiny lies

And they'll blind you with their

Wine so you won't even realize

'Til you watch the face you're washin'

Disappearin' down the drain

And you're staring in your

Mirror goin' privately insane

And that golden crown they've

Pushed down on your head

You better make it gal before

You wake up dead

First look around them golden

Sidewalks that you're walkin' on today

And you'll see that lonely gutter

Just a careless step away

And that altar that they're building

You don't even understand

'Cause you're dazzled by the

Flashin' of the daggers in their hands

You'll be dancin' in the darkness

When their music disappears

And the jangle of your chains will be

The only sound you hear

'Til your broken body's bleedin'

On an altar made of stone

And you've sacrificed your

Soul to please a world

That's sick and wrong

For you never heard a single word I said

Aww make it gal before you wake up dead
