About Golden Brown
The Stranglers - "Golden Brown" (Dec '81, Liberty), is a track (first released on 7", then on the "La Folie" album, the same month), with much controversy surrounding its lyrics. "The Stranglers Song By Song" (Hugh Cornwell's book), states: "'Golden Brown' works on two levels - It's about heroin & also about a girl". Essentially, the lyrics describe how "both provided me with pleasurable times." Sites: LyricWiki. .
Golden Brown Lyrics
[00:22.95] Golden brown texture like sun
[00:25.68] Lays me down with my mind she runs
[00:29.64] Throughout the night
[00:31.32] No need to fight
[00:33.42] Never a frown with golden brown
[00:39.10]
[00:42.88] Every time, just like the last
[00:45.47] On her ship tied to the mast
[00:48.94] To distant lands
[00:50.66] Takes both my hands
[00:52.95] Never a frown with golden brown
[00:57.99]
[01:19.34] Golden brown finer temptress
[01:21.30] Through the ages she's heading west
[01:24.76] From far away
[01:26.71] Stays for a day
[01:28.57] Never a frown with golden brown
[01:33.74]
[02:43.73] Nah, nah, nah, nah
[02:44.68] Nah, nah, nah, nah
[02:48.69]
[02:55.11] Never a (never a frown) frown
[02:59.24] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:03.02] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:06.91] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:09.36] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:11.46] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:16.05] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:18.55]
[03:20.81] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:21.67] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:22.62] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:23.79]
[00:25.68] Lays me down with my mind she runs
[00:29.64] Throughout the night
[00:31.32] No need to fight
[00:33.42] Never a frown with golden brown
[00:39.10]
[00:42.88] Every time, just like the last
[00:45.47] On her ship tied to the mast
[00:48.94] To distant lands
[00:50.66] Takes both my hands
[00:52.95] Never a frown with golden brown
[00:57.99]
[01:19.34] Golden brown finer temptress
[01:21.30] Through the ages she's heading west
[01:24.76] From far away
[01:26.71] Stays for a day
[01:28.57] Never a frown with golden brown
[01:33.74]
[02:43.73] Nah, nah, nah, nah
[02:44.68] Nah, nah, nah, nah
[02:48.69]
[02:55.11] Never a (never a frown) frown
[02:59.24] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:03.02] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:06.91] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:09.36] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:11.46] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:16.05] Never a (never a frown) frown
