Everything’s Golden
[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
[spoken]
It's water and it's in the wood! [laughs]
[sung]
Look who has a spring in his step
It's true, there's a bounce in each toe
This has-been feels young again
Just when he was used to feeling old

Fella, take a look at my suit
Yellow has acquired a glow
Fleabags can laugh and choke
These rags will be spinning into gold

Golden like the sun
Rising in the east
Golden with that brand new day shine
Hey!
Golden like the years
It took to get me here
Soon everything's golden
And everything's mine!

[spoken]
Soon, I'm gonna be the richest son of a gun there ever was!
[Carnies laugh]
Who wouldn't pay a fortune for a sip of forever?
[sung]
Nutshell: when the water is mine
Don't tell me you wouldn't buy
My merchandise! I'll name the price
And make a killing making sure you never die

My purpose, my plan, my whole raison d'être:
Strike it rich, rule the world, et cetera, et cetera!
And of course become immortal somewhere 'long the way!
I'll be -

[CARNIES]
Golden like the sun!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Oh, golden like my suit
Golden with that brand new day shine

[CARNIES]
Brand new day shine!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Hey! Golden like the years
It took to get me here
Soon -
[CARNIES & MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Everything's golden!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
And everything's mine!
[spoken]
C'mon, ladies. One last dance before I make my millions!

[Dance break]

[CARNIES]
Everything's golden!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Golden like the sun!

[CARNIES]
Everything's golden!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Golden like my suit!

[CARNIES]
Everything's golden!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Golden with that brand new day shine!
[CARNIES]
Everything's golden! Everything's golden!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Golden like the years
It took to get me here
Soon everything's golden
[spoken]
Say it!

[CARNIES]
Everything's golden!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Everything's golden!
And everything's -

[CARNIES]
Mine!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Everything's -

[CARNIES]
Mine!

[MAN IN THE YELLOW SUIT]
Everything's...mine!
