lyrics

Once I used to shower in your riches
Now you’ve left me covered in my rags
Neither of us knew what we were doing
Back before I was one of your bitches
Now you’re only one of those harpy hags
The unpursued the world was once pursuing
A reputation destined to end up in

I was lowlife hurrying hard after high times
You were insecure about securing the bags
We bet the better life was ours for the pursuing
Missed out on misdemeanors and high crimes
Hit up every hiding place go gigging for gags
Capitalize for attention with billing and cooing
Only sleight of hand if someone’s viewing

We scammed until we lost all our charms
Pride went before the last of our humble-brags
No one in the audience for cheering or booing
Even we’re afraid to be in each others’ arms
One of us zigs and the other one zags
We grimly grip and pitch in hopes of wooing
This prestidigitation, baby, who were we fooling?

Ruin! That is if it’s a series of nights
Ruin! if you rig all the fights
if you run all the lights
if you’re doing it right
