The Manipulators - Fingers Crossed Lyrics

If I were you I'd start over brand new
The things that you do may come back to haunt you
Loose is the screw that can undo under any type stress
I bought front row seats just to witness

Call up to your man when it's time to devise a master plan
Your vote really sings when you're tied up by marionette strings
Manipulation sleight of hand are the worst things for this land
Your word means nothing with your fingers crossed behind your back

The truth is a lie as long as you know how to deny
And a lie is the truth as long as no one will question you
You're free to go cause no one knows what you do behind the scene
And what's on the screen is all we think we'll ever need

Give them your trust then pick between two this is a must
Will they do what's just or reach into your pocket filled with lust
They say I'm gonna live the dream I'd rather douse myself with gasoline
Before I put my faith in you
