[Verse 1]
Holes get burned in my clothes
As my light bulb fizzes out, baby
Tripped on wires in the sky
My machine comes crumbling down into the dirt

[Chorus]
I used to be just like you
I did the things that I liked to do
But now I do what I'm told
All for my tiny little pot of gold

[Verse 2]
Girls all take brand new days
They're too beautiful and get roped in
The bank is huge, its shiny doors are frightening jaws
Chewing on my ancient DNA

[Chorus]
I used to be just like you
I did the things that I liked to do
But now I do what I'm told
All for my tiny little pot of gold
My tiny little pot of, tiny little pot of
Tiny little pot of gold
Gold!
[Bridge]
Oh, I'm a cultivated Aztec at 9:00am
I am a frequent flyer pharaoh and his friend
I am a dead soul, I'm a dead soul
I'm a dead soul, so wise

[Chorus]
I used to be just like you
I did the things that I liked to do
But now I do what I'm told
All for my tiny little pot of gold
My tiny little pot of, tiny little pot of
Tiny little pot of gold
Gold!
