1. Fools Gold

The gold road's sure a long road
Winds on through the hills for fifteen days
The pack on my back is aching
The straps seem to cut me like a knife 
The gold road's sure a long road
Winds on through the hills for fifteen days
The pack on my back is aching
The straps seem to cut me like a knife 

I'm no clown I won't back down
I don't need you to tell me what's going down
Down down down down da down down down
Down down down down da down down down

I'm standing alone
I'm watching you all
I'm seeing you sinking
I'm standing alone
You're weighing the gold
I'm watching you sinking
Fool's gold 

These boots were made for walking
The Marquis de Sade don't wear no boots like these
Gold's just around the corner
Breakdown's coming up round the bend 

Sometimes you have to try to get along dear
I know the truth and I know what you're thinking 

Down down down down da down down down 

I'm standing alone
I'm watching you all
I'm seeing you sinking
I'm standing alone
You're weighing the gold
I'm watching you sinking
Fool's gold 

Fool's gold 

I'm standing alone
I'm watching you all
I'm seeing you sinking
I'm standing alone
You're weighing the gold
I'm watching you sinking
Fool's gold

2. What The World Is Waiting For

Here comes the wise man
And there goes the fool
You see that burnt out world that he is living in
I don't need to look for the rules 
Here comes the donkey
Chained to a ten ton plough
He'll never make that hill in a million years
Whip crack beating down 

He loves his brother but he'd sell him for a fistful of gold
He needs a slave for his vision of the promised land
No I don't believe a word
Take me any way the wind blows
You'll never know just what you want to do
Or where you wanna go i think it's time
That you found what the world is waiting for
I think it's time To get real 

Here comes the wise man
And there goes the fool
You see that burnt out world that he is living in
I don't need to look for the rules 

Here comes the donkey
Chained to a ten ton plough
He'll never make that hill in a million years
Whip crack beating down 

Anytime you want it then it's there
All you gotta do is stop it
On the corner and ask
Say hey you don't live today
Stop the world
Stop the world
I'm getting off
I'm getting off
Can't get enough
I'm getting off
