Gilded Lily Songtext

Bronze Radio Return

von Up, On & Over

Gilded Lily Songtext
She shines and she radiates
With true glow
all so honest more than she knows
herself she underates.
With a bell and a whistle
she decorates to bring out
less down something more to talk about now.
Pull it in or fill it out

It's not what she put on,
it's not what she put on.
And oh, little darling why did you pour more on?
Can't you see your reflection is gold?
You don't need these to shine you up
No, my gilded lily, you're really already enough

Crack in the mirror's
split her vanity.
Her voice grows, echoes, tells us she's
a Jane Doe so usual and ordinary.
With a brush and a polish she touches up,
her skin she fills in all her imperfections
with diamonds, costumes, and gold trim

It's not what she put on,
it's not what she put on.
And oh, little darling why did you pour more on?
Can't you see your reflection is gold?
You don't need these to shine you up.
No, my gilded lily, you're really already enough

With a bell and a whistle she decorates.
Oh, little darling, don't pour more on.
Little darling
Oh, little darling why did you pour more on?
Can't you see your reflection is gold?
You don't need these to shine you up. No, my gilded lily,
you're really already enough.
