|
Button your lip |
|
And don't let the shield slip |
|
Take a fresh grip on your bullet proof mask |
|
And if they try, to break down your disguise with their questions |
|
You can hide, hide, hide |
|
Behind paranoid eyes |
|
You put on your brave face and slip over the road for a job |
|
Fixing your grin as you casually lean on the bar |
|
Laughing too loud at the rest of the world |
|
With the boys in the crowd |
|
You can hide, hide, hide |
|
{I'll tell you what, I'll give you three blacks, and play you for five} |
|
Behind petrified eyes |
|
You believed in their stories of fame, fortune and glory |
|
Now you're lost in a haze of alcohol soft middle age |
|
The pie in the sky turned out to be miles too high |
|
And you're hide, hide, hide |
|
Behind brown and mild eyes |
