[00:00.720]I am a soldier baby who works just like a slave
[00:04.990]Sweating through the pain of digging his foxhole
[00:07.500]That he know is just a grave
[00:09.900]You trust me don't you baby you'd hand your life to me
[00:14.800]Let's walk along the wire and watch the muzzles flash like lightning
[00:18.190]Emmm ah smile safe crackers understand
[00:22.130]Is rendering this steady hand obsolete
[00:27.090]You thought you caught my sleight of hand
[00:32.030]But you could never understand no not me
[00:36.540]Father was a charming man with much hidden up his sleeve
[00:42.970]I wonder if this is what he planned
[00:45.770]When he taught his tricks to me
[00:47.530]The youngest was a clever boy cracking calculus by three
[00:52.200]The eldest was impractical and obsessively clean
[00:56.810]Then there was me
[00:57.820]I was born a charming man with silver tongue pearl teeth
[01:00.440]This's never how it's s'posed to end
[01:02.120]We were promised all we'd dream
[01:03.250]The envy of the everyman our family seemed complete
[01:04.540]Our father was a charming man our mother a sirene
[01:07.220]But now I'm on the run again this hotel's home to me
[01:09.950]They found the other skeleton face down in the stream
[01:12.020]The youngest was still tucked in bed
[01:13.220]That way they thought he was asleep
[01:14.890]They moved the mirror from his mouth
[01:15.830]The fog that should remain was not to be seen
[01:18.260]Not to be seen
[01:20.440]I am the doctor darling who used to operate
[01:26.300]But I couldn't stand the pain of healing
[01:29.170]Only t'watch another woman waste away
[01:30.970]You trust me don't you baby
[01:33.860]Yeah you'd hand your life to me let's set this barn on fire
[01:38.530]And watch the flames eat up the roof beams
[01:41.420]A smile safe crackers understand is rendering this steady hand
[01:45.720]Obsolete you thought I must have broken in
[01:53.270]But there's no crime in coming in they hand me the key
[01:58.170]Floating on the wind again on the tail of my quarry
[02:04.050]On a woman weak for charming men who's holding what I need
[02:09.040]She'll leave her window cracked for me
[02:12.100]And I'll draft in like a breeze
[02:13.860]My father was a charming man and I learned it all from he
[02:18.670]The brothers born of wondersmith we started as a team
[02:23.220]Like complimenting cogs and gears we built a head of steam
[02:28.280]The tragic flaw of charming men is exactly as it seems
[02:32.900]Too much grease can break down a machine
[02:37.820]Pour another round on me pour another round on me
[02:47.130]You know I'm good for it you know me
[02:52.110]You know I'm good for it you know my family
[02:57.380]I am a lover lady who sees just what you dream
[03:02.550]I know you're going crazy living with him an' without me
[03:07.350]You trust me don't you baby
[03:09.610]Yeah you'd hand your life to me let's leave this life tonight
[03:14.410]And race the sunrise down the highway
[03:16.900]A smile safe crackers understand
[03:19.780]Is rendering this steady hand obsolete
[03:24.060]The charm and confidence of men
[03:29.380]Can jam the bullets in your gun and stop heartbeats
