[Verse 1]
Once I loved a butterfly
Do not wonder how, do not ask me why
But I believed what I would have been told
All things that glitter cannot be gold

[Chorus]
Ooooo ooo yeah
All things that glitter cannot be gold

[Verse 2]
Those jealous minds conspired to say
Just let that creature fly away
How can it be she has it all
Her pride is headed for a fall

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Oh Lord, what races we run
Seeking our place in the Sun
Reaching and doping we will find the right one
Now every day a new joy brings
My butterfly grew golden wings
It seems we find as we grow old
Some things that glitter may be gold
[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
So let us mind what is there to see
Before our hearts become too cold
In spite of all that we have been told
Some things that glitter may be gold

{Chorus}
Ooooo ooo yeah
Some things that glitter may be gold

[Outro]
Ooooo ooo yeah
Some things that glitter
May be gold
