Using the following, | |
I'm going to show you: | |
A) How to con someone using their own greed, | |
B) That you won't feel bad 'cos they're trying to con you anyway, and | |
C) TAKING | |
THEIR MONE | |
Y! As I have come to realise, running the beats is just getting people's confidence. | |
This scam only works 'cos that man thinks he's working this scam | |
And that you man off his mark | |
Get your mate, let's call your mate | |
Piers No, not | |
Piers, let's call him | |
Farquhar Anyway get | |
Farquhar to crawl into a bar with his dog | |
Like I said, the barman will try and con you later but you're gonna take all his money. | |
Anyway, get | |
Farquhar to pass into a local bar | |
And call to the bar to look after a dog for a dart | |
Just for 20 quid for a while, claiming that he hated it | |
But it was worth more than his car | |
This, by the way, requires that you find and supply | |
Farquhar With an animal, and a life, from your local park. | |
Get a nice dog that doesn't bark | |
But not so nice that someone might miss this mutt from the park | |
Anyway, using this technique you're gonna take all this man's money | |
But you're not gonna care, cos he's gonna ****ing deserve it [Chorus] | |
You'll never con an | |
Honest John | |
An Honest | |
John you can't drag down (Exactly!) | |
Con-do-lee get conned | |
When they think they're the cunning one (It's all one big con) | |
Neighbour you won't con | |
An Honest | |
John Now listen, get | |
Farquhar to dart out the bar | |
And just shop for some garm's, maybe | |
Just to pass an hour or so | |
I would go shopping cos' | |
I gave up drinking | |
But whatever, just have | |
Farquhar down the road | |
Now you walk in the bar, walk up to the barman | |
Order a jar, when you've caught him slouched on his own | |
Start eyeing the dog that he's minding by his side | |
Currently vibe him and start on about the dog you own. | |
Start asking the barman, if it's his fine specimen of a dog | |
Nod, smile, agree, look interested and cool | |
When he tells you it's someone else's you've just left previous | |
Tell him, ' | |
This is a very rare breed of animal.' | |
Last time | |
I lied my manager swiped me | |
But lie, and tell him it's like a ****ing | |
Red-Eared | |
Hunting Spaniel. | |
Tell him it's worth 600 quid and you would pay handsomely if you were to accept finance at all [Chorus] | |
You'll never con an | |
Honest John (Sometimes...) | |
An Honest | |
John you can't drag down (...Sometimes I think I should just go completely...) | |
Condolee get conned | |
When they think they're the cunning one | |
Neighbour you won't con an | |
Honest John (Keep listening though, it's important that you keep listening...) | |
Now take all his shopping off him | |
Get your mate | |
Farquhar to pop in | |
Looking straight gutted a bit later on | |
He should order a jar, talk at the bar | |
Ensure he looks calm, warm with the barman | |
And generally start conversating on. | |
Farquhar should start falling apart | |
About how he's arsed up some chance | |
And how arsed up his day was. | |
Or in the event, the spread betting he's getting ready to accept | |
That his rent's not getting payed up. | |
The barmans mind will chime slowly for a while | |
He might wipe the bar, as his mind is making sums. | |
Farquhar should continue to moan about money | |
And that this mutt is not the greatest of his worries. | |
And like 'ching!', the barman will five out of six times | |
Kindly offer his greed to buy the dog for a price of 300 quid | |
And after some bartering, your barman will haggle and charge harder | |
In greed of the scent of the scheme in his head. (That's right, neighbour!) | |
You'll never con an | |
Honest John | |
An Honest | |
John you can't drag down | |
Condolee get conned | |
When they think they're the cunning one (The barman, is gonna see how much he can stitch you up for.) | |
Neighbour you won't con an | |
Honest John (How does that work? Cos' everytime it's based around someone who thinks they're conning you.) | |
They'll never imagine the whole scenario is prepared solely for him | |
Why should he? | |
That sort of paranoia can get you in the loony bin! | |
As I have come to realise, running the beats is just getting people's confidence. | |
AND THAN T | |
AKING THEI | |
R MONEY! It's all one big con. |
