Roadie - Teeth Lyrics

He's laying on the charm with such the expertise
Cement's growing colder beneath my naked feet
And it's hard to imagine the warmth that I once felt
All the words you fed to me on a silver spoon
And I ate them up so sweet, like every one of them was true
You sat back and watched it happen as my confidence, it fell

But how was I supposed to know
The man hid underneath
Those blue cornflower eyes
And shining teeth

So you've got all the answers when you never paused to ask
You've had your fun now darling, it's time to drop the mask
Though I know it's hard to stop when you've gone so long in the pretend
You call yourself the hero, but don't I know the truth
The rose has been replaced with a more realistic hue
And I'm not falling for those clever games, oh no, not again

And how was I supposed to know
The man hid underneath
Those lovely hazel eyes
And shining teeth

I've been wasting away
Among the dust inside your pocket
And wrapped around your thumb
But it's high time I broke away
'Cause this is the last thing that I wanted
Now all is said and done

And how was I supposed to know
The man hid underneath
Those baby brown eyes
And shining teeth
How could I have ever known
The devil underneath
Those blue cornflower eyes
And shining teeth
