[Verse 1]
How can Midas put his hands on me again?
He said one day I’d realize why I don’t have any friends
I find myself alone at night unless I’m having sex
But he can make me golden if I just showed some respect
[Bridge]
But I don’t let him touch me anymore
I said (I’m not something to butter up and taste when you get bored
‘Cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
To find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden door)
[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
He said (please don’t go away)
He said (please don’t go away)
I said (it’s too late)
I said (it’s too late)
He said (please don’t go away)
He said (please don’t go away)
I said (it’s too late)
I said (it’s too late)
[Hook/Chorus]
And now I can’t stop thinking that I can’t stop thinking
That I almost gave you everything
And now the whole thing’s finished and I can’t stop wishing
That I never gave you anything
[Verse 2]
You wrote a hundred letters just for me
And I find them in my closet in the pockets of my jeans
Now I’m constantly reminded of the time I was nineteen
Every single one’s forgotten in a laundromat machine
[Bridge]
But I don’t let him touch me anymore
I said (I’m not something to butter up and taste when you get bored
‘Cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
To find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden door)
[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
He said (please don’t go away)
He said (please don’t go away)
I said (it’s too late)
I said (it’s too late)
He said (please don’t go away)
He said (please don’t go away)
I said (it’s too late)
I said (it’s too late)
[Hook/Chorus]
And now I can’t stop thinking that I can’t stop thinking
That I almost gave you everything
And now the whole thing’s finished and I can’t stop wishing
That I never gave you anything
And then I can’t stop thinking that I can’t stop thinking
That I almost gave you everything (I said it’s too late)
And now the whole thing’s finished and I can’t stop wishing
That I never gave you anything
[Outro]
He said (please don’t go away)
He said (please don’t go away)
I said (it’s too late)
I said (it’s too late)
He said (please don’t go away)
He said (please don’t go away)
I said (it’s too late)
I said (it’s too late)
