Snake Oil & Harmony - Damned If You Do

Trouble on the midway like a red rag to a bull
There were card sharps and ne'er do wells
I've never seen the parking lot so full
I saw Cocaine Pete moving fast on his feet
There were bikers and ambassadors
Lining up to take the bait
Wise guys and privateers
Hoping for a little bit of that on their plates
I saw cowboys and thieves
Then the parting of the seas

He was a hurricane rider, smiling like the jack of hearts
He was a handsome insider, this is where the trouble starts
And you're caught in the middle
Damned if you don't make it through, Damned if you do

There was a crush of big investors
With the Sherriff moving in on the flanks
Jack of hearts in the middle
Taking every one of them to the bank
He was gone before they knew, but he got his hooks in you

He was a hurricane rider, smiling like the jack of hearts
He was a handsome insider, this is where the trouble starts
And he's got you where he wants you
Damned if you don't make it through, Damned if you do

There were bikers and ambassadors
Lining up to take the bait
Wise guys and privateers
Hoping for a little bit of that on their plates
I saw cowboys and thieves
Then the parting of the seas

He was a hurricane rider, smiling like the jack of hearts
He was a handsome insider, this is where the trouble starts...

And you're caught in the middle
Damned if you don't make it through, Damned if you do
