Golden boy, golden hair
Skinny arms, you don't care
They loved your look, they loved your sound
Loved it when you came unwound

And you saw the world in a darker shade of blue
Ah didn't you
Let the colors wash all over you

Golden boy, your daddy's name
Carved upon a ball and chain
Drag it out across the stage
Scream and shout it, all the rage

And you saw the world in a darker shade of blue
Ah didn't you
Let the colors wash all over you

Amsterdam to San Fran
No one plays it like you can

All alone, motel room
Angels sing, angels swoon
Go ahead, break my heart
Golden boy, off the chart

And you saw the world in a darker shade of blue
Ah didn't you
Let the colors wash all over you

And you saw the world in a darker shade of blue
Ah didn't you
You just let the colors wash all over you
