Gilded
Arab Strap

So I'm free again this summer

'Cause you're playing with a plumber

With his own place and a car

I don't care, I'm gonna be a pop star


Well, he can take you for a ride

And he can buy you gifts and flowers

I'm sure he's got a nicer body then me

And maybe he can go for hours and hours


But I wonder where you and him might be

When you see me on the cover of the NME

After sell-out tours and a string of hits

And I'm snorting cocaine off a super-model's tits


My life is going my way

I saw you in the pub today

And you look so ugly now

Since you turned into a shallow disco cow


You're no longer my gilded shackle

So I don't have to listen to your hideous cackle

I couldn't give a toss what you do

And by the way, have you found out I was two-timing you?
