Handcuffs for Houdini Songtext
von Cutting Crew

Don′t talk about commitment
Don't talk about it here
Don′t talk about the Russians
Don't mention your fears
Don't talk about the black man
Don′t talk about the rope
It only causes problems
We got plenty of those, I said

Don′t talk about it, don't talk
Don′t talk about it, don't talk
Don′t talk about it, don't talk
Don′t talk about it, don't talk...

(Don't talk about it)
(Don′t talk about it)


Sing a song of sixpence
A packet full of lies
Don′t dare to love your children
Just let the baby cry
But when the pie was opened
They'd forgotten how to sing
There was Larry, Moe and Curly Joe
And Martin Luther King...

(Don′t talk about it, don't talk)

Like handcuffs for Houdini (Don′t talk)
This whole thing is a con (about it, don't talk)
You know what′s gonna happen (Don't talk)
But you don't know how it′s done (about it, don′t talk)
Somebody he once told me (Don't talk)
That the key was in his mouth (about it, don′t talk)
Like handcuffs and Houdini (Don't talk)
It looks so simple (about it)
But you just can′t work it out (Don't talk)

(Don′t talk about it, don't talk)
(Don't talk about it, don′t talk)
(Don′t talk about it, don't talk)
(Don′t talk about it, don't talk)
(Don′t talk about it, don't talk)
(Don′t talk about it, don't talk)
