There's a mountain and it's mighty high

You cannot see the top unless you fly

There's a molehill on proven ground

Ain't nowhere to go if you hang around



Everyone wants to sell whats already been sold

Everyone wants to tell whats already been told

What's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mould

Even at the centre of the fire, there is cold

All that glitters, ain't gold

All that glitters, ain't gold



There's an ocean of despair

There are people living there

They're unhappy each and every day

But hell is not fashion so what you trying to say



Everyone wants to sell whats already been sold

Everyone wants to tell whats already been told

What's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mould

Even at the centre of the fire, there is cold

All that glitters, ain't gold

All that glitters, ain't gold



There's a lady 99 years old

If she led a good life heaven takes her soul

That's the theory and if you don't wanna know

Step aside and make a way for those who want to go



Everyone wants to sell whats already been sold

Everyone wants to tell whats already been told

What's the use of being young if you ain't gonna get old

Even at the centre of the fire, there is cold

All that glitters, ain't gold

All that glitters, ain't gold



All that glitters

All that glitters

All that glitters

Ain't gold
