sxmrxxt - gold standard lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
somebody told me there’s a number
carved underneath my wrist
like a barcode at the thrift store
pricing what i missed
the neighbors keep their lawns trimmed
hedge funds and hedge trimmers, yeah
i’m out here with a b+tter knife
trying to split the difference

[chorus]
i’m the gold standard
(the gold standard)
wrote it on my own receipt
i’m the gold standard
(minted in the backseat)

[verse 2]
bank manager keeps calling
asking about my deposits
i got bottle caps and lint b+lls
stacked up in my closet
they measure you in inches
i’m thinking in kilometers now
decimal point freedom
check the conversion rate
[chorus]
i’m the gold standard
(the gold standard)
stamped it with a kitchen press
i’m the gold standard
(forge it till there’s nothing left)

[bridge]
appraisal came back inconclusive
the appraiser quit his job
moved to duluth or somewhere
started selling furniture

[guitar solo]

[verse 3]
so i’m walking past the p+wn shops
with my own inventory
priced according to a system
only i can see
worth more than their guesses
less than my delusions, sure
but the scale tips when i say so

[outro]
i’m the gold standard
(yeah, the gold standard)
and the vault’s inside my chest
i’m the gold standard
tender’s good wherever i stand
