Confidence Game Songtext
von Get Dead

I got a knee-jerk reaction to raise my voice
Likely cause some shit
There′s something going on behind your eyes
I can feel it

But things are gonna get worse
Before they get better
So you better hurry up and wait
This confidence game seems so clever
Guess everyone's on the take

They pat your back, then pick your pocket
With eye contact and peddle the cure
A pack of rats in a vat of cotton
Working graveyard shifts to try and fix the score

You never see ′em coming, never see 'em go
Always running with something
Don't they seem to float?
Ghost notes in a minor tone
Hand to God, no one knows


I got a knee-jerk reaction to raise my voice
Likely cause some shit
There′s something going on behind my eyes
You can feel it

Everyone keeps getting worse
They keep getting better
Better realize what′s at stake
It's a confidence scam right down to the letter
C-on′s through the treachery

I'll run you down while you′re running game
Pay attention, better check that change
For the counterfeit, they're all around you, kid
Might look alike, but the feeling ain′t the same

Keep an arm's length at least
Give yourself some free space
Between handshakes and hand grenades
No one says

I got a knee-jerk reaction to raise my voice
Likely cause some shit
There's something going on inside your eyes
I can feel it


I got a knee-jerk reaction to raise my voice
Likely cause some shit
There′s something going on behind my eyes
You can feel it
