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

[00:21.04] Golden brown texture like sun
[00:24.98] Lays me down with my mind she runs
[00:28.20] Throughout the night
[00:30.38] No need to fight
[00:32.28] Never a frown with golden brown
[00:37.95]
[00:40.35] Every time, just like the last
[00:44.14] On her ship tied to the mast
[00:47.69] To distant lands
[00:49.54] Takes both my hands
[00:51.51] Never a frown with golden brown
[00:57.09]
[01:16.29] Golden brown finer temptress
[01:20.06] Through the ages she's heading west
[01:23.52] From far away
[01:25.32] Stays for a day
[01:27.44] Never a frown with golden brown
[01:33.77]
[02:32.78] Nah, nah, nah, nah
[02:39.64] Nah, nah, nah, nah
[02:41.48] Never a (never a frown) frown
[02:41.94] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[02:53.54] Never a (never a frown) frown
[02:58.29] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:01.99] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:05.95] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:09.04] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:13.61] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:16.43] Never a (never a frown) frown
[03:21.26] With golden brown (with golden brown)
[03:24.59]
