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
