The deceiver Songtext

von Mike Peters

You are the power and the glory
You are the weakness in defeat
Like the rise and fall of the British Empire
You make me sick with your conceit
You are the weakness
You are you are you are you are the sickness that's in my soul
You are you are you are the maker
You are called greed and you're a cheat
You are you are you are the deceiver
You are not welcome in my life

You are the maker of illusions
You break up every dream we've ever made
And as I rise up from the ashes
Would you believe it
You raise up your ugly head Have you no shame

Too long, too long you have lain there
Too far too long too strong
Oh I will break your hold

You are you are you are the maker
You are called greed and you're a cheat
You are you are you are the deceiver
You are not welcome in my life anymore
