lyrics

THE TRICKS IN THE BAG


YOU CAN’T ALWAYS TRUST WHAT IS SAID
OR ALL THE MOVES THAT ARE MADE
WHAT YOU MAY THINK IS WISE
COULD BE RIDDLED WITH LIES
SURE YOU KNOW WHAT’S ON THEIR MINDS
ONLY TO FIND YOURSELF THE CLOWN
IN A RING OF CHARADES
BEWARE OF WHAT IS LAID

TRUE YOU CAN’T ALWAYS HIDE
FROM THE TRICKS IN THE BAG
SOMETIMES YOU’RE UNPROTECTED
BUT AS YOU LOOK AROUND
YOU SEE MORE THAN ONE MAN
WHO’S BEEN MANIPULATED

AS YOU TURN THE KEY IN THE LOCK
ARE YOU SURE YOU RESET THE CLOCK
WHAT WAS BETWEEN THE WALLS
MAY NOT EXIT AT ALL
SO YOU FOLLOWED THE YELLOW LINE
IT TOOK YOU WHERE DESTINY LIED
DID YOU EVER WONDER
WHY THEY HAD ALL THE POWER

TRUE YOU CAN’T ALWAYS HIDE…

SO THE RULE OF THUMBS MY FRIEND
IF YOU’VE BEEN FOOLED IN THE END
IS TO LOOK DEEP INSIDE
FOR THE CAUSE OF THE CRIME

TRUE YOU CAN’T ALWAYS HIDE…
