[Verse 1]
Coleen, you were the wave last night
With rabid eyes and your rain soaked pride
Nursing a sting from the one you love
While you bite your tongue until you taste blood
Black gums numb till you taste the sun
[Chorus]
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
[Verse 2]
Dan Dorsey haunted my dreams last night
First time we've talked since he lost his life
With our family labrador at his side
Sometimes I wish I was the one who died
Black gums numb till you taste the sun
[Chorus]
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
[Outro]
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
'Cause dead retrievers are all golden
