Gold Tooth Grin

V5.5

You wore a white smile Like a showroom sign Said, “This one’s special” Then you stole my time Your chair was a throne Your room had the shine But every little promise Had a crooked line You said, “Trust me” With your perfect grin Then the numbers came And the doubt moved in Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin You sold me hope again Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin Then you broke that trust in the end Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin I felt it sink right in Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin Now I don’t come back again You found one small ache And you made it a storm Sixteen tiny charges For a two-minute warn’ The paper kept climbing Like a bad-looking bill I asked for the truth You fed me the pill You said, “Relax now” Like you meant no harm But your nice little hands Had a con man’s charm Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin You sold me hope again Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin Then you broke that trust in the end Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin I felt it sink right in Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin Now I don’t come back again I saw the glare in your glasses I saw the shake in your hand You don’t fix what’s broken You just charge for where it stands And when the door swung open I heard my own name drop From a mouth full of silver To a heart that wouldn’t stop Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin You sold me hope again Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin Then you broke that trust in the end Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin I felt it sink right in Gold tooth grin, gold tooth grin Now I don’t come back again No more sweet talk No more your thin disguise Gold tooth grin I learned to read the lies
