Sidewinder
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.
You almost got me good this time with your subtle subterfuge
You had me buyin' all your lies tryin' to make me play the stooge
But now he's opened up my eyes to all your crafty schemes
And now he's ripped off your disguise, get your hands off my dreams
I tried to take you on myself but the fight just wasn't fair
'Cause I was only swingin' blind and you caught me unaware
But when I fell against the ropes I shouted out his name
He came and picked up all my hopes and he beat you at your own game
You sidewinder, I'm all through with you
You spellbinder, not gonna play the fool for you
Well I might stumble, I might fall but a battle's not the war
Because his blood has done it all I don't need you anymore
He said to crucify my flesh and I know his words are true
And now that old man's put to death and his spirit's comin' through
You sidewinder, I'm all through with you
You spellbinder, not gonna play the fool for you
