Lyrics Roger Hodgson

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
