Slick Tricks and Bright Lights |
X’ing out the numbers puts me in a slumber |
Can’t call for help and nobody’s at home. |
Had a premonition, icy cold suspicion |
Fueled by superstition and slick tricks bright lights. |
It takes one million strips of paper fastened by one staple. |
To take the upper hand they say you’ve got to have a plan. |
Simple concentration, choked with hesitation, |
Simple conversation, no I don’t understand. |
No, I don’t understand how you got the upper hand on me. |
I don’t understand how you got the upper hand on me. |
X’ing out the number put me in a slumber |
So hard to call for help when nobody’s at home. |
Had a premonition, icy cold suspicion |
Fueled by superstition, stuck in repetition. |
You’re calling me a liar, there’s more smoke than fire. |
More smoke than fire if you’re calling me a liar. |
On a million strips of paper, fastened by one staple. |
In one word, shut it down, shut it down. |
No, I don’t understand how you got the upper hand on me. |
I don’t understand how you got the upper hand on me. |
No, I don’t understand how you got the upper hand on me. |
