DFA – Mouth Fulla Gold lyrics

Silence is gold - talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

They say - hush - is gold talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

And it goes like this

Ain’t no grill but a mouth full gold
No grill but a mouth full gold

Im gonna pack my shit and hit the road
To every jerkwater end - buddy im down
Living off mad sound, living off leftovers
Totally not willing to ever acknowledge

Anything as a given - frugal but driven
My wishes ain’t gonna remain as a vision
Armed with a pen and a pad and a yellow bottle
Everybody around creamy like peanut butter

These motherfuckers be sucking off each other
For a feature on a run off the mill beat model
Shit sounding like a preset come on
FL invented the print you follow

2018 was a blood sucking bitch
Blotting paper sheet from making me wanna quit
Downhill river thats the flow you go with
Or you don’t and you drown leaving bones and thats it


Silence is gold - talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

They say - hush - is gold talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

And it goes like this

Ain’t no grill but a mouth full gold
No grill but a mouth full gold
Ain’t no grill but a mouth full gold
No grill but a mouth full gold

Silence is gold - talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

They say - hush - is gold talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me


Syllables looking like diamonds to me
In a row as a chain for everybody to see
Put em in the right order to flex and shit
Get wows in my hood for straight sentences

If they appear successive that is
Standards as high as the chassis they whip
808s work as laxative for the tongue
I want more - yeah that’s the right pitch

Ain’t no grill but a mouth fulla gold
You gotta gotta spit it out before the story gets old
Stage light tan motherfuckers don’t know
About the urge and the drive so pull it of at a show

But I don’t care so I grab my dick
Step into the spotlight and rap some shit
Gimme a number and act like rich
But the label can’t be found online - explain this

Silence is gold - talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

They say - hush - is gold talk is silver
But syllables looking like diamonds to me

And it goes like this

Ain’t no grill but a mouth full gold
No grill but a mouth full gold
Ain’t no grill but a mouth full gold
No grill but a mouth full gold
