Up My Sleeve
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sit right down, forget the time
Watch the hands, relax your mind
I will give you what you need
I've got something up my sleeve
All your life you've carried doubt
So much faith you've done without
I intend not to deceive
But I've got something up my sleeve
Smoke in your eyes
One hand holds you while the other hides
Perfectly still
Just trust the things you can feel
Pull a penny from your ear
Watch your interest disappear
You think you've seen the best of me
But I've got something up my sleeve
Smoke in your eyes
One hand holds you while the other hides
Perfectly still
Just trust the things you can feel
Always one foot out the door
I'll drink again, alone I'm sure
The curtain drops, I watch you leave
With something hidden up my sleeve
