Yesterday, I met a boy so fine
Right away I knew
He'd captivate my mind

So strong, the kind you dream about
Baby, together we could really turn it out
I showed him to some friends of mine
They said, "Girl, don't waste your time"

That boy's no good for you
Listen, girl
I'm telling you
I think it's time you knew that

All that glitters isn't gold
Everything you see isn't what it seems to be
(No, oh, oh)
Oh, no
All that glitters isn't gold

Sometimes we make the mistake
Of thinking everything that looks good is great
We all seem to go for what shines
And then we leave all of the other things behind
Some people always give a show
'Cause it's the only way they know
But you don't have to play that game
Because the only thing that matters
Is what's inside your heart

All that glitters isn't gold
Everything you see isn't what it seems to be
(No, oh, oh)
Oh, no
All that glitters isn't gold

So here's my advice to you
Everything you see's not always true
Take the time to look inside
And find out for yourself
What's really on their minds

All that glitters isn't gold
Everything you see isn't what it seems to be
(No, oh, oh)
Oh, no
All that glitters isn't gold

No, oh, oh, oh, it isn't gold
No, oh, oh, oh, it isn't gold
No, oh, oh, oh, it isn't gold

Oh, no, it isn't gold
No, no, it isn't gold
Everything you see's
Not what it seems to be

Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no
All that glitters isn't gold
No, no, no

All that glitters isn't gold
Everything you see isn't what it seems to be
(No, oh, oh)
Oh, no
All that glitters isn't gold

All that glitters isn't gold
(No, oh, oh)
No, no
All that glitters isn't gold
No, oh, oh, oh, it isn't gold
No, oh, oh, oh, it isn't gold
No, oh, oh, oh, it isn't gold
