The Golden Star

Verse 1

Clean

Khaki pants

Ironed flat and stiff

No dirt under my fingernails

I scrubbed them twice

Until they bled

Quiet

Sitting straight

Hands folded tight

I wait for the bell

Waiting for the nod

Nod

Yes sir

No sir

Thank you sir

Chorus

I do exactly what you want me to

I do exactly what you want me to

Nice and polite

Keep out of sight

I do exactly what you want me to

I do exactly what you want me to

Verse 2

Walking

Down the hallway

Staying on the right

Eyes on the floorboards

Don't look up

Never speak

Turn the page

Read the lines

Sign the name

Dot every i

Check every box

Boxed in

Safe

Small

Doing what I am told

Doing what I am told

Chorus

I do exactly what you want me to

I do exactly what you want me to

Nice and polite

Keep out of sight

I do exactly what you want me to

I do exactly what you want me to

Bridge

Mind the gap

Close the door

Wash the plate

Scrub the floor

Mind the gap

Close the door

Wash the plate

Scrub the floor

I am a good boy

I am a good boy

I am a good boy

Guitar Solo

Chorus

I do exactly what you want me to

I do exactly what you want me to

Nice and polite

Keep out of sight

I do exactly what you want me to

I do exactly what you want me to

Outro

Yes sir

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you for the rules

I love the rules

I love the rules

I love the rules

I love the rules
