| Would you say that you wish you were worse?
|
| Would you say that you wish you were worse than you are?
|
| See, you made up a list of your luckiest stars
|
| And you made me familiar to you in the dark
|
| When you said that you wish you were worse than you are
|
| Hey you with the gold which you keep or which keeps you in your place
|
| Do you recoil from it’s jealous green and copper taste?
|
| Oh, do you like to dance with it hanging like some hula dress so lightly off
|
| your waist?
|
| Was it magic or Midas that touched you?
|
| And by magic, I mean trickery and by Midas, I mean faith
|
| By magic, I mean trickery and by Midas, I mean faith
|
| The tricksters speaks of trickery, is your worth the work of the Midas touch?
|
| Do you close your eyes while you’re dancing, the same you close your eyes in
|
| your lover’s clutches?
|
| How dare I speak of trickery, I am not bestowed with the Midas touch
|
| I don’t close my eyes while I’m dancing the same way I close my eyes in my
|
| lover’s clutches
|
| How dare I speak of trickery, when the wild things singing are pulling their
|
| sham?
|
| You can follow the lead of the jackal to see where I am
|
| You can follow the lead of the jackal who waits for the kill to be made by a
|
| mightier hand
|
| You made up a list of your luckiest stars, and you made me familiar to you in
|
| the dark
|
| You made up a list of your luckiest stars, and you made me familiar to you in
|
| the dark
|
| Ba-dum ba-dum oh-oh-oh-oh-oh ba-dum
|
| And you made me familiar to you in the dark, when you said that you wish you
|
| were worse than you are
|
| Ba-dum ba-dum oh-oh-oh-oh-oh ba-dum
|
| And you made up a list of your luckiest stars, and you made me familiar to you
|
| in the dark
|
| And you made me familiar to you in the dark, when you said that you wish you
|
| were worse than you are
|
| And I follow the lead of the jackal to see where you are |
