How Come You're So Solid Gold Lyrics

This is the scent of modern love
This is the scent of modern love
It’s in the creep, hideaway
And it’s in the sink, hideaway
Start now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

It’s in the holler, modern love
It’s in the holler, modern love
Well this is the dark sea, hideaway
And I am your finger maid, hideaway
Start now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

It’s on the land
I can’t forgo the forgotten

Why don’t you fall asleep without me, for once, daddy
Why don’t you fall asleep without me, for once, daddy
Cause you know I need you
You know I need you
You’re the wise child

This is the send-up, modern love
This is the send-up, modern love
Well do it away, child
It’s easy
Way away
It’s easy now
You’re stalling
How come you’re so solid gold
Well I’ll be your finger maid
I’ll be your finger maid
Just start now
Start now.

Oh heart
I see you all around me now
Oh heart
I feel you all around me now
Oh heart
I feel you all around me now
Oh, ooh
Oh, ooh

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.

quotes from joan How Come You’re So Solid Gold? “Start now” I have learned that you must relieve yourself from any secrets. If anyone tells you to keep something hidden, you can very easily be manipulated. Do not fool yourself into thinking that you are exempt.

Her use of the word "daddy" creeps me out. There is something unhealthy in this relationship. What exactly is a "finger maid"?
