Goldmine Lyrics

I take a pill or two
To make me nice for you
Buzz me at 3 am
You feel inflicted, dirty
Its not called making out
If you are over thirty

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
I'm 747
She's anti-aircraft
She makes me insecure
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine

I am a waste of time
December valentine
She is a rich bitch
She calls me "macho man"
She speak in tiny words
But I don't understand

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
She Thomas Jefferson
I'm william howard taft
She makes me insecure
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine

(she got my headlights in her eyes)

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
She is the Nobel Prize
I am a rough draft
He makes me insecure
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
I'm 747
She's antiaircraft
She makes me insecure
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine
She got the goldmine
She got the goldmine

I take a pill or two
To make me nice for you
Buzz me at 3 am
You feel inflicted, dirty
Its not called making out
If you are over thirty

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
I'm 747
She's anti-aircraft
She makes me insecure 
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine

I am a waste of time
December valentine
She is a rich bitch
She calls me "macho man"
She speak in tiny words
But I don't understand

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
She Thomas Jefferson
I'm william howard taft
She makes me insecure
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine

(she got my headlights in her eyes)

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
She is the Nobel Prize
I am a rough draft
He makes me insecure 
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine

She got the goldmine
I got the shaft
I'm 747
She's antiaircraft
She makes me insecure
But that should make her fear me more
She got the goldmine
But I'm fine
She got the goldmine 
She got the goldmine

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Those lyrics could be wrong. Not sure if it is fear or feel me more. Can anyone clarify? And I'm not sure about the "You feel inflicted, dirty" line in the first verse.

Nevertheless, here is the meaning of the song.... "Goldmine" ("She got the goldmine/I got the shaft/She's Thomas Jefferson/I'm William Howard Taft") is a bitter breakup song with the bonus of being downright hilarious. Says Blake Smith (lead singer), "I think we're the first band to ever drop William Howard Taft in a song. 'Cause if you can educate the kids about U.S. history while rocking them . . . There's a lot you can learn from Caviar songs."
