Rock on gold dust woman
Take your silver spoon
Dig your grave

Heartless challenge
Pick your path and I'll pray

Wake up in the morning
See your sunrise loves to go down
Lousy lovers pick their prey
But they never cry out loud
Cry out

Did she make you cry
Make you break down
Shatter your illusions of love
And is it over now do you know how
Pick up the pieces and go home

Rock on ancient queen
Follow those who pale
In your shadow

Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale
Up for sale

Well did she make you cry
Make you break down
Shatter your illusions of love
And is it over now, do you know how
Pickup the pieces and go home

Well did she make you cry
Make you break down
Shatter your illusions of love
And now tell me
Is it over now, do you know how
Pickup the pieces and go home
Go home
Go home

Pale
Shadow
Of a woman
Black widow
Pale
Shadow
Of a dragon
Dust woman

Pale
Shadow
Of a woman
Black widow
Pale
Shadow
She's a dragon
Gold dust woman
Woman, woman

    I had a Jungian experience with this song which confirmed the substantiation of all sacred books of cosmological significance. Stevie Nicks in my mind is definitely one of the most mediumistic personalities in popular music. Even the chords on the guitar were the embodiment of all Pythagoras could imagine would ever exist in music!!! (Music of The Spheres) Enough of the abstractions lets get on down babe!!!! In Dec of 1977 I engaged a friendship with a Chaka Khan clone in San Diego CA on a sweet afternoon on the way to the beach (Of course I never made it to the beach during our conversation) we found out our birthdays were 3 days apart Dec 28 hers Dec 31 mine and felt intimacy was pre-existent. After getting together for the sweetest most ethereal date of bacchanalian indulgence our dreamstate was suddenly shattered by the nastiest freefall of the naturally pathological states of paranoia 2 Capricorns would be bound to experience even in the midst of Supernal Bliss! We argued in our substance induced stupor to the point of my expulsion from her El Cajon apt in the middle of the night. I walked back to my Navy quarters and woke up plum full of a decadent satiated state of ambivalent satisfaction/gratification. Rumours was the stuff on the charts and i decided to play my freshly purchased cassette. Gold Dust Woman was so accurate in depicting my experience the night before even the chords were appropriate for the feel of the moment to the smallest detail. Every word was perfect in its description! I actually encountered the cosmic gears and springs of the eternal framework in THAT SONG!!!! Part 1 of more to come!!!!! The other shamanistic Gal was Roberta Flack!!!
