Snake Oil (feat. Reva Devito)

Take his word if you want it

That burnt-out bird song

I'm not the one who's gonna talk you round

Knows how to sing to your instincts

That charm and snake oil

The little high before he brings you down

Doesn't matter how many words I waste

Banging on like a trebuchet

Pretty clear there's been a change of plan

Whatever you say

Just let the sun set over the slipway

As the last boat comes down

Always knew we were close to an ending

But I just couldn't work it out

I know you think he's some kind of real thing

The kind of truth you wanna find

But if you just needed someone pretending

I could have told you better lies

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Don't bet it all on the big smile

The presentation

You're not the only one to turn your head

He's got you caught at the turnstile

With no invitation

Watching the dust cloud vanish up ahead

Doesn't matter how many words I waste

Banging on like a trebuchet

Pretty clear there's been a change of plan

Whatever you say

Just let the sun set over the slipway

As the last boat comes down

Always knew we were close to an ending

But I just couldn't work it out

I know you think he's some kind of real thing

The kind of truth you wanna find

But if you just needed someone pretending

I could have told you better lies

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Doesn't matter how many words I waste

Head banging like a trebuchet

Pretty clear there's been a change of plan

Whatever you say

Just let the sun set over the slipway

As the last boat comes down

Always knew we were close to an ending

But I just couldn't work it out

I know you think he's some kind of real thing

The kind of truth you wanna find

But if you just needed someone pretending

I could have told you, I could have told you

Just let the sun set over the slipway

As the last boat comes down

Always knew we were close to an ending

But I just couldn't work it out

I know you think he's some kind of real thing

The kind of truth you wanna find

But if you just needed someone pretending

I could have told you better lies

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)

Don't say you believe it (don't say you believe it)
