Golden Pony

I was broken in when I was young To a town of fame, plastic and party drugs Staring at the carousel all along Wondering when I'd be tall enough to get on To get on Five dollars for a five minute ride Is it really worth that much to get high? It's never gonna be like the first time You go round Keep on riding that Golden pony for as long as you can Be the one and only cowboy left standing When you're riding that Golden pony It gets pretty lonely But you'll be treated like you're holy In this land So keep on riding till you can't Till you can't There was this one girl who wouldn't get off She spun so fast till she dropped The ride makes you feel like you're going somewhere You're just spinning in circles through the air Through the air Five dollars for a five minute ride Some people they wait in line all their lives Most folks get bucked right off of the horse The lights keep shining till the music warps (Whoa!) Keep on riding that Golden pony for as long as you can Be the one and only cowboy left standing When you're riding that Golden pony It gets pretty lonely But you'll be treated like you're holy In this land So keep on riding till you can't Till you can't
