Hiss Golden Messenger - The Great Mystifier Lyrics

Hiss Golden Messenger Lyrics

"The Great Mystifier"

Some call him
The Great Mystifier
Breaking hearts all day
Shake the dice
Be the second caller
I wish love worked that way

Gimme just a little
Gimme
Gimme
Gimme just a little, Mama

Swallow the sun
Practice resurrection
Take the blame
Learn the lesson
Say you're sorry
Love ain't a weapon
Pay your debts
Don't love in vain

Bells on the river
Flags of many colors
All this asking
What do you love?
Ain't the truth just dying to cut you?
But when it's right
It's worth the pain

Gimme just a little
Gimme
Gimme
Gimme just a little

We don't understand it
Nobody understands it
Until it falls like rain
Same old, day old
Radical changes
Buddy, don't you know me?
