Lyrics
Tropical Chancer
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.
He'll take the money and the food that's on my hand
But you have to understand that he’s a dreamer
Living and laughing in a mind you can’t believe
This place turns honest men into thieves
And I can see it in his eyes
It is that time
To sail out from the night
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
He’ll trade your loving for the things he’s never seen
The places he’s never been
Above the member he is just a good pretender
And he doesn’t give his love away for free
And I can see it in his eyes
It is that time
To sail out from the night
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
I met him through a dancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
A tropical chancer
Didn't know he was a tropical chancer
