A Great Pretender (Alt) 03:47
lyrics
buy track
Live my life in a line check the sky for signs, who am I? I don't remember Start the day with a smile haven't felt it for a while, who am I? I'm a great pretender Smoke my last cigarette blow the smoke out the door Got a fight with the world, and I'm back, I'm back for more Breathe my last good breathe placing final bets The world is but a rag, to wipe up your regrets When you dance with the devil, you're gonna' do it on four limbs When you stand in the revel, you can hear the howling winds If you're lost in the waiting, you can boil in the pot Take a spoon for the tasting, eat around the rot Live my life in a line check the sky for signs, who am I? I don't remember Start the day with a smile haven't felt it for a while, who am I? I'm a great pretender Drink my last good drink think through the glass Gives me time to think and for these anxious feelings to pass Die my last good death, blow ashes to the path When there's nothing left, it's a desperate grasp When you dance with the devil, you're gonna' do it on four limbs When you stand in the revel, you can hear the howling winds If you're lost in the waiting, you can boil in the pot Take a spoon for the tasting, eat around the rot Live my life in a line check the sky for signs, who am I? I don't remember Start the day with a smile haven't felt it for a while, who am I? I'm a great pretender

Killer's Song (Alt) 05:43
lyrics
buy track
Step forth, forget my name Step down, to lay a claim To die now ain't the American way So let that crooked smile stay Breathe life, into these hands Concede to these demands Stick 'em up into the sky Let the steel song scrape you dry Forget my brain and ride away Forgive these hands, forget the days Forget my brain and ride away Forgive these hands, forget the days I've been driving oh so long To spring life to a dying song To end up at the fireside To stoke the flames with sodden pride Breathe life, into these hands Concede to these demands Stick 'em up into the sky Let the steel song scrape you dry Forget my brain and ride away Forgive these hands, forget the days Forget my brain and ride away Forgive these hands, forget the days

The Rats 04:26
lyrics

The rats chase the people away They came up from the ground You can see 'em skitter and sway Move along to the sound The rats started spreading a plague They fed on the mound You can hear the skeletons play A hollow jig for the town The rats will dance on your grave and turn 'round your frown They mark the bodies with stakes But they all fall down The rats will dance on your grave and turn 'round your frown They mark the bodies with stakes But they all fall down The rats will dance on your grave and turn 'round your frown They mark the bodies with stakes But they all fall down The rats will dance on your grave and turn 'round your frown They mark the bodies with stakes But they all fall down The rats will dance on your grave and turn 'round your frown They mark the bodies with stakes But they all fall down The rats will dance on your grave and turn 'round your frown They mark the bodies with stakes But they all fall down

House Of The Rising Sun 06:41
lyrics
buy track
There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one My mother was a tailor She sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gamblin' man Down in New Orleans Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time he's satisfied Is when he's all drunk Oh mother, tell your children Not to do what I have done Spend your lives in sin and misery In the House of the Rising Sun Well, I got one foot on the platform The other foot on the train I'm goin' back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain Well, there is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God, I know I'm one
