Cons & Tricks Songtext
von The Willowz

Well I′ve been lost in a backbeat
It seems like everything's wrong
Well I′ve been strapped to the backseat
No matter how sad the song
It seems like everything I do is wrong
It's just too stupid just to sing this song
People tell me just to leave it alone
Oh I've been down, but not alone

Cards and cheques, they get me through
I′m full of cheats, I′ll cheat you too
Manipulation gets me through
The point being that you never knew
Oh that you never knew
Oh that you never knew


No matter how bad the habit
I'll have you push it along
We seem to be these great maggots
A fascist plastic song
It seems like everything I get is gone
It′s just too tragic just to sing this song
My mother tells me not to do no wrong
And little kids, they sing along

Cards and cheques, they get me through
I'm full of cheats, I′ll cheat you too
Manipulation gets me through
The point being that you never knew
Oh that you never knew
Oh that you never knew

You know that everything you ever told me has been wrong
It seems like everyone's opinion just can′t be wrong
It's a matter of words, don't get me wrong
You know that everything you ever told me has been wrong
It′s not the things that I′ve got that are wrong
It's just the things that push me along
It′s not the things that are lost that are lost
It's just the things that you′ve never known


I try to rub out the habit
It seems to push me along
No matter how bad you had it
Someone else rolls along
It seems like everything I had is gone
It's how we roll that seems to roll along
The song is over now, please move on
Well I′ve been down, but not for long

Cards and cheques, they get me through
I'm full of cheats, I'll cheat you too
Manipulation gets me through
The point being that you never knew
Oh that you never knew
Oh that you never knew
