Lyrics When Oskar Fische Comes to Town - Sarah and the Safe Word

When Oskar Fische Comes to Town

Mister Fische pays what he owes
Peddles hope on southern roads
When he comes to town, you’ll surely know
Our street is painted in grey
A trail in fear in his wake
Get what you paid for
That’s what you paid for
Your dreams of fortune and fame
Another dime in his plate
Watch what you wish for
That’s what you wished for
Mister Fische is rolling through
The sweetest man to bury you
He’s got what you need if you want him to
Unaware of what he’s sold
His velvet glove
His heart of gold
Another night, another soul
Our street is painted in grey
A trail in fear in his wake
Get what you paid for
That’s what you paid for
Your dreams of fortune and fame
Another dime in his plate
Watch what you wish for
That’s what you wished for
Come and see Oskar Fische
Now everyone knows his name
He didn’t want it this way
That’s what he paid for
Got what he paid for
Your dreams of fortune and fame
Another dime in his plate
Watch what you wish for
That’s what you wished for
