The Hustler |
You can try and run me down |
But you can’t drive me on the ground |
When you’re not there I’ll be around |
Haunt you I won’t make a sound |
Track you I don’t need a hound |
You think your lost I got you found |
You’re surrounded though you think that they can’t see |
Your castle walls they all will fall |
You’ll be surprised that all in all |
Nobody really cares at all |
You won’t believe the biggest xxx |
I can bite your heels when you crawl |
The pain will come from those so small |
Go cry wolf or better you should scream |
Though you’re not on top you think your first |
Some surgeon scalpel steal the nurse |
Who can let the others feel the hurt |
When you’re the driver of the hearse |
So you’ll feel bad but they’ll feel worse |
Without you what would the doctor be? |
I’m watching you but not like quite before |
I will find you you’re the one I’ve been looking for |
But when it’s over don’t say sorry any more |
Abreast this painter run him down |
Into the night to paint the town |
While putting everybody on |
Blowing smoke rings for the crown |
You brag of those you’ve been around |
You listen to your silly sounds |
Disciples pass your bread around |
While the cross is hidden in your gown |
They think that they’re on holy ground |
Not knowing Judas watches from the tree |
While posing as the saint of need |
You got fathered to the one who’s weak |
By using words like sad defeat |
You laugh but you got lose the beat |
The girls all giggle at your feet |
The squealing people that you meet |
You might get made but be discreet |
Don’t you take your mask of trick or treat |
As you get the stars down on their knees |
But do you really think that you have far to meet? |
Believing in the magic noose |
That trips the egg the golden goose |
And with it you can never lose |
While fairy tales steal the truth |
I don’t let go hey |
I don’t let loose |
For the goose is flippin' of the roof |
And without its wings how can you be free? |
But I’m watching you but not like quite before |
I will find you you’re the one I’ve been looking for |
But when it’s over don’t say sorry any more |
(Instrumental) |
That ranger he just rides along |
Protecting those that don’t belong |
In the land that has no right or wrong |
Time till you just load his gun |
For killing outlaws one by one |
Shooting in-laws just for fun |
While the jungle laws are on the run |
Step out before you get stepped on |
Sadists wear their war paint on |
Afraid if you’re in the dark to long |
Cause you know the jungle is no place for the meek |
You say life is absurdity carnival for melodies |
You hide the big time bitterly |
You set the stage so faithfully |
You’re hocker for more mystery |
While marching so religiously |
Is the army that has paid to see |
The choir boy of reality |
Laugh at all authority |
And you smile oh so cynically |
Sole possessor of his key |
And it’s sad to know that’s all you’ll ever be |
And you said keep on the sunny side |
That life is just a rainbow ride |
Silver studded surfboard glide |
On the whinnin' waves keep your hide |
Don’t you hit the moon when you fly to wide |
It’ll bring to you down below the tide |
It’s where no one keeps their tears inside |
The waters can hide them if you cry |
For in the waves there are no mysteries |
But I’m watching you but not like quite before |
I will find you you’re the one I’ve been looking for |
But when it’s over don’t say sorry any more |
