The Hustler - Eric Andersen[00:00:00]
You can try and run me down[00:00:05]
But you can't drive me on the ground[00:00:07]
When you're not there I'll be around[00:00:09]
Haunt you I won't make a sound[00:00:11]
Track you I don't need a hound[00:00:14]
You think your lost I got you found[00:00:16]
You're surrounded though you think that they can't see[00:00:18]
Your castle walls they all will fall[00:00:22]
You'll be surprised that all in all[00:00:24]
Nobody really cares at all[00:00:26]
You won't believe the biggest go like[00:00:29]
I can bite your heels when you crawl[00:00:31]
The pain will come from those so small[00:00:33]
Go cry wolf or better you should scream[00:00:35]
Though you're not on top you think your first[00:00:39]
Some surgeon scalpel steal the nurse[00:00:41]
Who can let the others feel the hurt[00:00:43]
When you're the driver of the hearse[00:00:46]
So you'll feel bad but they'll feel worse[00:00:47]
Without you what would the doctor be[00:00:50]
I'm watching you but not like quite before[00:00:54]
I will find you you're the one I've been looking for[00:00:59]
But when it's over don't say sorry any more[00:01:02]
Abreast this painter run him down[00:01:09]
Into the night to paint the town[00:01:11]
While putting everybody on[00:01:13]
Blowing smoke rings for the crown[00:01:16]
You brag of those you've been around[00:01:18]
You listen to your silly sounds[00:01:20]
Disciples pass your bread around[00:01:22]
While the cross is hidden in your gown[00:01:24]
They think that they're on holy ground[00:01:26]
Not knowing Judas watches from the tree[00:01:28]
While posing as the saint of need[00:01:32]
You got fathered to the one who's weak[00:01:35]
By using words like sad defeat[00:01:37]
You laugh but you got lose the beat[00:01:39]
The girls all giggle at your feet[00:01:41]
The squealing people that you meet[00:01:43]
You might get made but be discreet[00:01:45]
Don't you take your mask of trick or treat[00:01:47]
As you get the stars down on their knees[00:01:50]
But do you really think that you have far to meet[00:01:52]
Believing in the magic noose[00:01:56]
That trips the egg the golden goose[00:01:58]
And with it you can never lose[00:02:00]
While fairy tales steal the truth[00:02:02]
I don't let go hey[00:02:04]
I don't let loose[00:02:05]
For the goose is flipping of the roof[00:02:06]
And without its wings how can you be free[00:02:08]
But I'm watching you but not quite like before[00:02:12]
I will find you you're the one I've been looking for[00:02:17]
But when it's over don't say sorry any more[00:02:21]
That ranger he just rides along[00:03:17]
Protecting those that don't belong[00:03:19]
In the land that has no right or wrong[00:03:21]
Time till you just load his gun[00:03:24]
For killing outlaws one by one[00:03:26]
Shooting in-laws just for fun[00:03:28]
While the jungle laws are on the run[00:03:30]
Step out before you get stepped on[00:03:32]
Sadists wear their war paint on[00:03:34]
Afraid if you're in the dark to long[00:03:36]
Cause you the jungle is no place for the meek[00:03:38]
You say life is absurdity carnival for melodies[00:03:42]
You hide the big time bitterly[00:03:47]
You set the stage so faithfully[00:03:49]
You're hocker for more mystery[00:03:51]
While marching so religiously[00:03:53]
Is the army that has paid to see[00:03:55]
The choir boy of reality[00:03:57]
Laugh at all authority[00:03:59]
And you smile oh so cynically[00:04:01]
Sole possessor of his key[00:04:04]
And it's sad to know that's all you'll ever be[00:04:06]
And you said keep on the sunny side[00:04:09]
That life is just a rainbow ride[00:04:12]
Silver studded surfboard glide[00:04:15]
On the whinning waves keep your hide[00:04:17]
Don't you hit the moon when you fly to wide[00:04:19]
It'll bring to you down below the tide[00:04:21]
It's where no one keeps their tears inside[00:04:23]
The waters can hide them if you cry[00:04:25]
For in the waves there are no mysteries[00:04:27]
But I'm watching you but not quite like before[00:04:31]
I will find you you're the one I've been looking for[00:04:36]
But when it's over don't say sorry any more[00:04:40]
