But in the magic cove, there's a pretty one
I asked her where it goes 'cause I really want
I wonder if she knows that we're underwater
That's the way it goes in this city wonder

Moved to the spot, I'm one of a few
A whole lot of everything, but nothin' to do
Tilted in a Tesla, partner, ex-wrestler
He dates Francesca, they on the Xannies
Liposuction scheduled for Granny
She want to save some, add to her fanny
Girls' trip, Miami at the end of the year
Polluted-filled skies, tryin' to think clear
I heard the bad news while I was sheddin' a beer
Watch out from the coast, Paul Revere
We all play a part in the devil's cheer
Run to the hills 'cause the end is near

But in the magic cove, there's a pretty one
I asked her where it goes 'cause I really want
I wonder if she knows that we're underwater
That's the way it goes in this city wonder

Yo, a desolate city where it hurts to smile
Ran into the Reverend, says it's been a while
I'm reining in a rando', she's a social scandal
Gave ourselves a handout when it's too much to bear
ABC boys raided the mayor
Like Shaun, he's a Ryder, took on the dare
Now he's singin' like a birdy, pullin' on his hair
Trendin' on Twitter's what some of us live for
Friendship's here, but now fuckin' revolving door
All of this a joke? Pauly Shore
Bullshit keeps comin', maybe I'm a matador
What are we livin' for?

Are we all losing our minds?
Because life got in the way
(Hey, hey, hey)
They will be here just in time
Your replacement is here to stay (ahh)

New gold, fool's gold
Everything will disappear (new gold)
Someone's out here
Who traveled far too many years (new gold)
To nowhere, nowhere (new gold, new gold)
Nothing here is ever real (new gold)
New gold, fool's gold (new gold)
Everything will disappear, disappear
Disappear, disappear, disappear
Disappear, disappear, disappear
Disappear, disappear, disappear, disappear

But in the magic cove, there's a pretty one
I asked her where it goes 'cause I really want
I wonder if she knows that we're underwater
That's the way it goes in this city wonder (new gold)

But in the magic cove, there's a pretty one (new gold, new gold, new gold)
I ask her where it goes 'cause I really want (new gold, new gold, new gold)
I wonder if she knows that we're underwater (new gold, new gold, new gold)
That's the way it goes in this city wonder (new gold, new gold, new gold)

In the magic cove, there's a pretty one (new gold, fool's gold)
I ask her where it goes 'cause I really want (everything will disappear)
I wonder if she knows that we're underwater (someone's out here)
That's the way it goes in this city wonder (who travelled far too many years)

But in the magic cove, there's a pretty one (to nowhere, nowhere)
I ask her where it goes 'cause I really want (nothing here is ever real)
I wonder if she knows that we're underwater (new gold, fool's gold)
That's the way it goes in this city wonder (everything will disappear) Writer/s: Damon Albarn, Greg Kurstin, Kevin Parker, Romye Robinson
