you put the dumbest things
in the strangest places
behind the door, on the floor
a cabinet full of empty faces
let`s give it a miss this time
give it a miss this time
is there a problem here
running through the ranks
loss of faith, loss of face
captain will you walk the plank
let`s give him a push this time
give him a push this time
it`s hard to care who`s clinging to the reins
when the horse keeps pulling lame
pulling lame pulling lame
pulling figures from your sleeve
slight of hand
twist of fact
one last request, a final trick
let`s see the disappearing act
let`s give him a miss this time
give him a miss this time
it`s hard to care who`s clinging to the reins
when the horse keeps pulling lame
pulling lame pulling lame
all the king`s people
running out of hope
jumping ship while he jumps rope
our luck his curse
got a bad way of making good things worse.
