Hmmmmm

Well it used to be so peaceful

Used to be so serene

Well if it wasn't for us

It would still be pristine

There are fires

A burning

Down on empty camps

All of these

Tricksters

And hucksters

And scamps

These days

I got my hands full

Trying to find out

What's real

Well a bunch of hungry eyes will

Turn you into a meal

Beware that smiling face

Beneath that old street lamp

He's with those

Tricksters

And hucksters and scamps

He cut a hole

In the bucket

Watched that

Water funnel down

Said if

I'm gonna be a hero

Gonna have to make

A mess out of this town

Well he waited for a while so

Everything had turned to rust

Well he slept next to a pistol

Said in christ I my trust

Well then he stole that election

Put his face on every stamp

All on his council

Tricksters

Hucksters and scamps

Wooohhh

Runnin' now

He been fighting for some years now

It was his turn

To survive

Well they offered him a fortune

In the fifth he'd take a dive

Well the crowd went home happy

The nation's faith

Lives with the champ

Oh in his corner

Tricksters

Hucksters and scamps

All of his sponsors are

Tricksters

Hucksters and scamps

Woooohh

Runnin' now
