Golden Retriever Lyrics

"Hey!" said the Devil
When I met her at the roundabout
She's got powers magnetic
Devours you of everything you've got

She's a golden retriever
Retrieves your oldest coin
Leads you blindly down every dark alley
And then she'll cream you dry

Wow!

"Stop!" said the puppy
When I met him at the zebra cross
Said "you'll need protection from every direction
But she'll get you anyhow"

Coz she's a golden retriever
Retrieves your oldest coin
Leads you blindly down every dark alley
And then she'll cream you dry

Wow!

She's a golden retriever

Golden retriever (x7)

(Golden retriever) (x4)

About a woman who sleeps around.

I sleeps around bit is probably true, but I believes it more about a woman who is a gold digger.

Well, not all of us are silly and British as you may potentially be.

Cover art for Golden Retriever lyrics by Super Furry Animals

i am british but not silly...except when listening to SFA.

great line is the british translation of meeting the devil not at the crossroads but at the ... zebra crossing (pedestrian road crossing).

great guitar break live.

This is actually about 2 puppies that Gruff Rhys and his girlfriend had at the time... Nice try though ;)

Yeah I'm sure the song really is that straightforwardly literal as that, and with no subtext whatsoever.

I think it's about prostitution. "When I met her at the roundabout" - stopping on the road to pick her up "Retrieves your oldest coin" - it's said prostitution is the oldest trade "Leads you blindly down every dark alley" - well, self explanatory "You need protection from every direction" - again, self explanatory
