The voice inside the suit came crawling through the telephone Somewhere between a chessboard and a nursery rhyme I heard the rattlesnake shaking in his invitation And the whites of his knuckles on the other end of the line
Midas yeah Midas lalalalalala Midas yeah Midas
Stepped inside his office and the whole place seemed to shiver He said “Come a little closer, boy Come on don't be shy” I searched to find the fracture in his tombstone facelift And he fixed me with the coldness of the kingdom in his eyes
Midas yeah Midas lalalalalala Midas yeah Midas
He said: Come on, kid You think we got a deal, yeah? Threw his head back like a pelican and straightened his tie hahaha Stop that man, you're making me kinda nervous And with a click of his silvered fingers I was falling through the sky
