Everything I Touch Turns To Gold

Lyrics

[intro sample:] Ee-ehhh, you be nice without long hair. Now is cool, mmm? But your friend, I think they not recognise you...

There's a story: / I was a lonely girl, / going nowhere / in a dead end world, / but now I'm moving / this is my day today, / now I'm a good thing / I'm gonna get my way. / So won't you stop now / and take a look at me, / 'cause I'm everything / that a girl should be, / and if you ask me/ you know I'm not sure why / I just decided / I've got to touch the sky /

Because... / Everything I touch is turning into gold, / turning into gold, / turning into gold. / Everything I touch is turning into gold. / Watch me baby, / ooh-ooh ooh. /

You say you need her, / but you just make me laugh; / you know you love me - / do you want my photograph? / I'm gonna get you; / I'm bending all the rules, / you better lose her / 'cause she's the Queen of fools. / You're gonna get down, / get down on your knees, / I'll make you beg me, / beg me "pretty please?" / 'cause I'm your future baby, / I'm your fantasy. / So hey, hey honey, / give it all to me, / yeah. /

Everything I touch is turning into gold, / turning into gold, / turning into gold. / Everything I touch is turning into gold. / Watch me baby, / ooh-ooh ooh. /

Everything I touch is turning into gold, / turning into gold, / turning into gold. / Everything I touch is turning into gold. / Watch me baby, / ooh-ooh ooh. /

Everything I touch is turning into gold, / turning into gold, / turning into gold. / Everything I touch is turning into gold. / Watch me baby, / ooh-ooh ooh. /

Everything I touch is turning into gold, / turning into gold, / turning into gold. / (Everything I touch, / turning, / turning.) / Everything I touch is turning into gold. / Watch me baby, / ooh-ooh ooh. / (Turning baby, / turning me.) /

Everything I touch is turning into gold, / turning into gold, / turning into gold. / Everything I touch is turning into gold. / Hey there, honey, / ooh-ooh ooh. / [to fade...]

References

The introductory sample is taken from Roman Holiday, starring Audrey Hepburn. Of the context, our helpful correspondent Elisa says, "She's a princess who's snuck out of her entourage and is spending the day doing things she's always wanted to do. Including having all her hair chopped off."

Sleevenotes

The liner notes say:
A demo intended for our favourite drag queen, Naomi Campbell. Sadly she decided against becoming a disco diva, joining U2 and penning in the '90s equivalent of Slaughterhouse Five instead.
