No Confidence Man
Charlie got a band in his hand
a rubber loop
says I'm the man you really want
so just act natural
don't try to tell me your bullshit scheme
'cos I have no idea what you mean
no idea
I'm just trying to sleep
I've heard quite enough
just to listen is really tough
'cos you're on it all the time
hearing the bells it's 9AM
you better wake up your friend before he won't wake up anymore
'cos I got to split I'm late to leave
he gave me nothing but grief
and some bullshit story only I would believe
I've heard quite enough
I heard quite enough
you're on it all the time
you're on it all the time
you're on it all the time
and you're full of it all the time
