"Confidence Man" lyrics
"Confidence Man"
I'm a confidence man
Piss down your back
Tell you it's raining
A confidence man
Reigning like a queen
Like anyone else
Everyone expected to be queen
Which is more possible,
For it to rain piss,
Or a kaleidoscope of queens?
A confidence man
These are your words
Use 'em in my favor
On the train, I pull your wallet
Feed it to a mule
You come at me with bloodshot eyes
Charging like a bull
I'm a confidence man
Not a confident man
Fall into the shadows
Some mug preaching 'bout humility
A confidence man
You nearly did a, "What? Who's there?"
Nobody here but us chickens
Doesn't matter, was a ruse anyway
Took your pants that time
I'm a sensitive man
Got the confidence to try
I know nothing about you
Yeah, you know everything about me
If I reveal any more
I'll just be a spy
I'm a confidence man
Not a confident man
I'm not a confident man
They're much more dangerous
Look at this man
Never questioning
Never failing
So he never learns
Look at him
I mean, watch his ass
He's the kind of thief
That works in broad daylight
That never get caught
You give me the heebie-jeebies, sir
I'm a confidence man
Not a confident man
Oh, you made me
You abandoned me
These are your words
Use 'em in my favor
Gimme all your confidence
I'll feed it to a mule

Nick Drake - "Saturday Sun" Saturday sun
Came early one morning
In a sky so clear and blue
Saturday sun
Came without warning
So no one knew what to do
Saturday sun
Brought people and faces
That didn't seem much
In their day...
Courtney Barnett - "Everybody Here Hates You" I feel stupid, I feel useless, I feel insane
I feel toothless, man you're ruthless, oh yeah
I go to Loving Hut, I get my hair cut, I feel the same
I feel putrid, I'm getting used to it these days...
Drugdealer - "Honey" When you're not around, your people have their way with words
And you don't have to hear the sound to feel the burn
Well, I get up and down
And very close to people's lives
You've got some things you...
Vetiver - "The Living End" Cold comfort's all you find
Begging for a little peace of mind
Keeping one step ahead of defeat
Drifting like a notion down the street
Oh Mercy, don't be shy
Lift my spirits, raise 'em high
Bright...
Tennis - "Need Your Love" Baby I'm fated but you will be waiting
I will have made it and you'll be explaining what you think the world owes you
Looking for someone to carry you into
Futures that beckon but need to be followed...
