Way too late, the damage done
Your mouth a loaded gun
Unaware you’re next to none overall
No one believes a word you say, it’s all show
The devil is inside you, but soon becoming frail
Now realize
We’ll play along with the flavorless game
Let’s simplify
Know that no one forgets when push comes to shove
Get your way while you still can
You love the fight, the guarantee
You can run but you can’t hide
Just walk away, so theatrical
Not that it matters
Give it time
One day real soon your act won’t deliver
Bottom of the barrel
Not so much the silver tongue
You can’t fool anyone
Your disguise is overdone, takes the fall
Facing a hefty price to pay, no control
Welcome you to the prelude of grand finale scale
Same guise sung, overrun
