Sugar Army - Hooks For Hands текст песни

I am alive, but in steady decline
I am conspicuous in more ways than one.
And if you pick at the flesh from these ageing bones
You'll see I'm not senseless
I've discovered it's easy to indulge those who like to pretend

I've locked horns with the lost and the lonely
I've been discreet just to keep the peace
It's all just a game that you have to play
To avoid the more self righteous
And there's never been any cause for alarm or disdain
Since I've discovered it's easy
To indulge those who like to pretend

Chorus:
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
That you have!

I've had to compete with the street meat
I've gotten down with the hounds in the sketchy little town
All in the name of financial game
It's a good thing I'm eager to please!

If there's a lesson to be learned from dealing with the strange
I've discovered it's easy
To indulge those who like to pretend

Chorus:
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
That you have!

So lets just hope my appetite will never lead me into the shadows
To have come this far on a whim must be some kind of small miracle
A miracle!
When you got hooks for hands,
The more good fortune that you have

Chorus:
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
When you got hooks for hands
The more good fortune that you have
That you have!
