Growing up isn't easy to do Especially for one who always knew You would always come up second best Is that why you have such bitterness? The apple of your father's eye And always by your brother's side Then a little sister came along And you found all the affection suddenly gone But underneath that cold exterior I know you've got a heart of gold So aloof and so superior But you've got a heart of gold Watch out, don't get caught in the crossfire Watch out, still growing up, she's in a rage I guess she's reached that difficult age Growing up is very hard to do Everybody watching your every move Your private life always on view But jealously never really suited you But I know that underneath that rude exterior There's got to be a heart of gold Underneath that hard exterior Is a little girl waiting to be told You've got a heart of gold She's got a heart of gold I couldn't understand your attitude I only wanted to take a photograph of you But I was shocked when I heard what you had to say You picked up my camera and threw it away I didn't really mean to ruin your day Now I see you've got a little girl of your own Little princess suddenly grown And there's a man, he's smiling at you He must have been the one who always knew You had a heart of gold Underneath that rude exterior You've got a heart of gold So aloof and so superior But you've got a heart of gold Underneath that rude exterior You've got a heart of gold Underneath that hard exterior You've got a heart of gold Watch her, she'll give you a broadside But I know that inside She got a heart of gold
