Didn't Like You Anyway

The skilful calculation

Of everything you need

The sly manipulation

Well, that's all, money and greed

Won't help you succeed

They pay you when you're winning

They pay you if you lose

And that just keeps you grinning

Ear to ear, you don't refuse

It keeps you amused

Didn't like you anyway

There's no truth in what you say

Never dealt in honesty

Always reading prophecy

And you'd get it anyway

As we crawl in disarray

And your smile just isn't right

As you take another bite

I hear you call that dealing

That's not the word I'd use

'Cause some might call it stealing

No pretence, that's just abuse

Whatever you choose

Now I can tell your fortune

The way it's going to end

You're staring at the full moon

In the dark, your only friend

Too late to pretend

Didn't like you anyway

There's no truth in what you say

Never dealt in honesty

Always reading prophecy

And you'd get it anyway

As we crawl in disarray

And your smile just isn't right

As you take another bite

Didn't even look away

When they placed a dead bouquet

On the grave of charity

With a veil of apathy

And it echoes day by day

As the reasons blow away

And your hands grow very white

As you take another bite

Well, you're no better than a hungry dog, that's biting

And you're the one who's always after more

Well, you're no better than a thief at night, that's

frightening

You know the devil is your friend for sure

Didn't like you anyway

There's no truth in what you say

Never dealt in honesty

Always reading prophecy

And you'd get it anyway

As we crawl in disarray

And your smile just isn't right

As you take another bite

Didn't even look away

When they placed a dead bouquet

On the grave of charity

With a veil of apathy

And it echoes day by day

As the reasons blow away

And your hands grow very white

As you take another bite
