Uneasy Lies The Head Of The Confidence Man

Terry Scott Taylor, Jerry Chamberlain, Tim Chandler, Greg Flesch, Ed McTaggart

[Verse 1]
Through the hoops and secret panels
Down the Slip and Slide
Faith finds a way to the other side
But you are tempted to be clever
This seems to do the trick
Pick a number, you've got a thousand shticks

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But certain crowds are tough
Someone has called your bluff
Your timing's out of step
You drown in your own sweat

[Chorus]
You've become a fire-walker
And work the center ring
But you never learn to walk on water
'Cause you can't pull any strings

[Post-Chorus 1]
They pardon you when you leave
A few cards up your sleeve

[Verse 2]
You wear a beard, a magic turban
Charm and hypnotize
Handle snakes, take flying carpet rides
Trap doors and wires, smoke and mirrors
Tools of the wonder trade
False-bottom trunks conceal the big charade

[Pre-Chorus 2]
It's taken years to learn
How not to crash and burn
There's little glory in
Just learning how to swim

[Chorus]
You've become a fire-walker
And work the center ring
But you never learn to walk on water
'Cause you can't pull any strings

[Post-Chorus 2]
You conceal, misdirect
Disappear, stack the deck

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Jump and tumble, hurdy-gurdy
That's the Confidence Man
A little truth, a little sleight of hand

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Sometimes we grasp the truth
When we have lost our youth
Sometimes we live and die
Still clinging to a lie

[Chorus]
You've become a fire-walker
And work the center ring
But you never learn to walk on water
'Cause you can't pull any strings

[Post-Chorus 3]
Someone's laughing, someone knows
You're not wearing any clothes

[Outro]
Still I am tempted to be clever
This seems to do the trick
