Mr. Golden Deal Lyrics

Artist: Tonic
Album: Lemon Parade

Swallow your pride
Make way for the new bride
Holding your tongue
When they call another winner
Oh there is more to this life
Hey Mr. Golden Deal
Tell me how does she feel
She's like the wind
That boy couldn't sail
He says I've washed these decks for years
I've carried those pails
And oh there is more to this life
Hey Mr. Golden Deal
Tell me how does she feel
Does she hold you in the night
Does she tell you everything's gonna be alright
Hey Mr. Golden Deal
How does she feel
Captain oh my captain
Steer the first mate true
The men they sing a song of fear
Ghosts of ships who failed before
And the captain he is laughing
You can't control the sea
She will always do as she pleases
It's her nature to be free
And oh there is more to this life
Hey Mr. Golden Deal
Tell me how does she feel
Do you hold her in the night
Do you tell her everything's gonna be alright
Hey Mr. Golden Deal
I know how you feel
Oh, I know
Oh, I know
Hey Mr. Golden Deal
How does she feel

Sarah, if that were true then the lyrics would be ".. make way for the new groom".

This song is simply about fate. Some win some lose and luck be a lady. Your fate is like the sea. Just try to do your best and if you get a Golden Deal don't forget how easy it is to lose it again.

Sarah has it right, and it fits in with the entire theme of the album. Love this song!

Sarah has a great interpretation, and Keith, she was right. he's saying that shes now a bride, which she wasn't while with him, "the new bride"
