Con man

I love you, I tell them, I can smell that they are rich

A smile, a kind word, and some charm she loves me, stupid bitch

If they have a husband then I’m out of the woods

A little con I play on them the money oh so good

Make them believe I have a scam I play upon their greed

Let them have the ideas and then on them I feed

So the wife she loves me the husband’s money take

Oh the fun of it a con man on the make

Yet the strangest thing of all an orphan am I

My father killed my mother, you know the reason why

Because my father and my mother a con man did them have

My mother fell in love with him and he conned my dad

And when my father he found out my mother he did kill

Though she thought the scam was legit he gave it to her still

Then he turned the gun on himself and dropped down dead

While I lay hidden underneath the bed

But the strangest thing of all was I followed his career

The man who killed my mother and my father dear

So now I hang around in bars my next victim to find

Just like the man who robbed my father blind

And as I perform my scam I even use his name

The man on whom my parents’ death is blamed

So round and round the pattern goes, life it is a game

Round and round it goes but it always stays the same

Maybe in a way I am gaining my revenge

Conning other people their death to avenge
