ROGER HODGSON
"Every Trick In The Book"

Well every trick in the book
that you want to play
You'd better have a good answer
to get your way
'Cause all the tricks that you pulled
And all the people you fooled,
well you you started something

Well all the people that liked you
just went on home
And when they could of stood by you,
you stood alone
'Cause all the people you fooled
And all the people you took
well you started something

And all the signs in your head
call out you're dead
But all the preachers went home
and left you alone

And all the women that liked you,
you fooled around
And when you got them inside you,
you turned them down
'Cause all the women you fooled
And all the women you took
well you started something

And all the lines in your head
call out you're dead
And all the teachers went home
and left you alone

Monkeys to the left,
monkeys feeling right at home
Too many people,
too many walking alone
And though they say
they don't like it
You know they really don't mind
if you started something

But all the signs in your head
call out you're dead
And all the teachers went home
and left you alone
