lyrics

Yours truly despairs
It wouldn't be fair
If no one ever cared
So I'm at your grave to declare
A special kind of love
Just me and you, shameless

It's a simple thought for a simple god
And the beautiful big dipper
My, my
My requiem for a golddigger

It's a simple thought for a simple god
And the beautiful big dipper
My just revenge, my clever friend
My requiem for a golddigger...

Requiem for a golddigger
Requiem for a golddigger
La la la
La la la
La la la
One less golddigger

In the heavens you are finally one
With the stars and the sun
And I picture you dancing there
With the moon burning in your hair
Like the only jewel you couldn't steal
The only love I ever thought was real
My, my
My requiem...

Requiem for a golddigger
Requiem for a golddigger
My requiem for a golddigger
My requiem for a golddigger
La la la
La la la
La la la
One less golddigger

about

Myself a Living Torch image

Myself a Living Torch San Francisco, California

By turns surreal, beautiful, arch, and melancholic, MaLT’s sonic adventures explore the meaning of love and role of sex in a failing, depersonalized culture. Literate enough for lasting relevance, tuneful enough for disposable pop; dark, sometimes heavy, but always with sly humor and a dash of hope. Active in SF CA between 1991 and 1993 ... Credit Louis-Ferdinand Céline for the incendiary name. ... more
