Suckerz Promises Songtext
von Jim White

You cain′t chew life with a broken tooth!
You don't backstroke up the fountain of youth!
You won′t mainline dreamtime!
Ain't no price tag on your peace of mind!
From the pimp roll to the Nashville stroll
Freakshow to the Hollywood bowl
It's all fools gold, vain skywriting
Hang a worm on a hook
And everyone′s biting them
Suckerz promises
In the wake of deception
Suckerz promises
And in the hope of redemption
Suckerz promises
In the holy grail of love
Now check out the chick with the credit card eyes!
She got a freeze dried souls as the silicone sighs!
She spends about as good as a Kinko′s dollar!
She's a pitch man with a pitch fork hollering
"Shut your mind, open your pocket!


Hey ho, time to pony up the dough!"
You best Q-tip your ears cause the truth I′m selling
Is that propped up behind the hopping and the yelling
Is a whole lotta
Suckerz promises
In the wake of deception
Suckerz promises
And in the hope of redemption
Suckerz promises
In the holy grail of love
Now I ain't hip and I don′t much care
My hips do fine just a'getting me there!
I take bullshit with a big ole stride
You don′t step in the stink of no mainstream slime!
'Cause suck on the bait and sad but true
In the end my friend the jokes on you!
'Cause all it takes turning nickels to dimes
Is product a hook, some bait and a line
A line of them
Suckerz promises
In the wake of deception
Suckerz promises
And in the hope of redemption
Suckerz promises
In the holy grail of love
