Metal Flake Mind
[Verse 1]
Metal Flake mind, mirror fascination
Silk spun diamond lace, camouflage
Metal Flake mind, mirror fascination
Howdy Doody ego only you can massage

[Verse 2]
Laser light games seeking gold, and all that glitters
Never stop to think about
Wish you take the time, reconsider
Your slickified style is something we can do without

[Bridge]
Why can't you see the light?
Your world is tinsel candy wrapped in fantasy
In time, things could be so right
If only you would stop to find the truth you know to be

[Verse 3]
High-heel stepper, Hollywood illusion
Hot as fire, cold as ice
Try to survive in this world's confusion
To get what you want, you got to pay the price

[Verse 1]
Metal Flake mind, mirror fascination
Silk spun diamond lace, camouflage
Metal Flakе mind, mirror fascination
Howdy Doody ego only you can massage
[Bridge]
Why can't you see the light?
Your world is tinsеl candy wrapped in fantasy
In time, things could be so right
If only you would stop to find the truth you know to be

[Outro]
Metal Flake mind, Metal Flake mind
Metal Flake mind (confusion), Metal Flake mind
(Do you know just where you're going?)
Metal Flake mind, Metal Flake mind
(Higher, higher, higher, higher)
Metal Flake mind, Metal Flake mind
Metal Flake mind, Metal Flake mind
Metal Flake mind, Metal Flake mind...
