Shiny Things lyrics

The things a crow puts in his nest

They are always things he finds that shine best

Somehow they'll find a shiny dime, a silver twine

From a Valentine

The crows all bring them shiny things

Leave me alone you big ol' Moon

The light you cast is just a liar

You're like the crows, 'cos if it glows

You're dressed to go, you guessed I know

You'll always cling to shiny things

We'll, I'm not dancing here tonight

But things are bound to turn around

Though the only I want that shines is to be king

Here in your eyes

To be your only shiny thing
