    and I'm probably bound to deceive you after all.
  •  
    Something must be wrong with me and my brain
    if I'm so painfully unrewarding
  • But my dreams are for dreaming and best left that way
    and my zero to your power often equals nothing at all.
     
  • Double lock defense, there's no chain on my door
    and I'm available for consultation
    But remember your way in is also my way out,
  • and love's four letter word is no compensation
     
    Black Ace dog handler I'm a waiter on skates
  • so don't you jump to your foresking conclusion
    Cause I'm up to my deaf ears in cold breakfast trays
    to be cleared before I can dine on your sweet
  • Sunday lunch confusion.
     
  • PLAY TOO ..
