lyrics
Silver spoon in your mouth
How I'd love to take you out
Silver spoon, spend some time in my mouth
Silver spoon, right since birth, he's put you to work
Why not rest a bit? It's time for a switch, to my mouth
Oh, shiny one
Oh, stirrer of fate
Give me a fraction of all that you create
I've been dealt only deuces and a few random cards
I've got a fairly nice smile but it's falling apart
Come inside. Come inside
There's plenty of room
Come inside. Come inside
Silver spoon
No one gave me the keys, no one gave me the crutch
No one gave me the breeze, no one gave me the luck
And I paddled and I paddled and I still couldn't reach the shore
And I stretched up on my toe but the cookie stayed in the jar
And I've run and I've tackled, but others still won the game
And they got the sunshine, and I got to stand in their shade
Finally, after such a tug,
You've come undone; you are set free.
Lay your head, on my tongue
I don't care if you burn
I don't care if you burn
Silver spoon
How I'd love to take you out
Silver spoon, spend some time in my mouth
Silver spoon, right since birth, he's put you to work
Why not rest a bit? It's time for a switch, to my mouth
Oh, shiny one
Oh, stirrer of fate
Give me a fraction of all that you create
I've been dealt only deuces and a few random cards
I've got a fairly nice smile but it's falling apart
Come inside. Come inside
There's plenty of room
Come inside. Come inside
Silver spoon
No one gave me the keys, no one gave me the crutch
No one gave me the breeze, no one gave me the luck
And I paddled and I paddled and I still couldn't reach the shore
And I stretched up on my toe but the cookie stayed in the jar
And I've run and I've tackled, but others still won the game
And they got the sunshine, and I got to stand in their shade
Finally, after such a tug,
You've come undone; you are set free.
Lay your head, on my tongue
I don't care if you burn
I don't care if you burn
