Sometimes the sun comes out from behind the clouds. Chipper guitar pop with lots of harmonies.
lyrics
Breaking ground,
three steps up and only one step down,
welcome to the new frontier.
Oh baby, won't be spinning out,
just building it up, not breaking it down.
Doing all right, getting it right,
so making it right this time it's Golden.
Dragging round all the traffic from a past breakdown,
burned the brakes out, but now I'm changing gears.
Baby won't be spinning out, be building it up,
be breaking new ground, doing all right,
it's golden.
I hear the humming hidden in forbidden frequencies,
look out, incoming, broken words unable to be retrieved.
Forget it, I'm hunting for a gin and tonic polyphonic breeze,
inky clouds flying off the page,
but we're sweet as 'cos we're doing all right,
getting it right,
so making it right this time
it's Golden.
