Gilt Complex - Sons and Daughters

She has a gilt complex

Break her neck

And now she’s run, run, running right over the edge

Had a gilt complex

Poison pen

She’s signing her name and she’s forgetting her friends

Had a gilt complex

Break her neck

And now she worry, worry, worries for the good of her wealth

This gilt complex

Useless effect

Now she suffer, suffer, suffers, destroying her health

Poison pen

Signing his name, forgetting his friends

Break his neck

And now he worry, worry, worries for the good of his wealth

This gilt complex

Useless effect

Now he suffer, suffer, suffers, destroying himself

All you see is all you’ll get

He’s trying to buy some kind of mettle

He’s not sure of all he has, but

Avarice is all that he’s made of…

And everybody knows
