Lyrics
WIZARD OF BABYLON
W. Hector/S.Lastovica
He tells his lies
but his nose don’t grow.
He just can’t hide
what everybody knows.
He’s a broke down good for nothing,
never- done- A –damn-thing-right.
Double dealing con man
Stealing everything in sight.
He’s a joker now, wizard of Babylon,
mouth running a marathon.
You let him in
you can show him out.
Can’t stand another day
with that fool inside my house.
He’s a broke down good for nothing,
never- done- A –damn-thing-right.
Known backstabber,
better heed my advice.
He’s a joker now, wizard of Babylon,
mouth running a marathon.
-SOLO-
One of these days
you’re gonna find out.
See the trouble he’s in
and there’ll be no doubt.
He’s a low down dirty dealer
playing with a rotten hand.
Why can’t you see it babe
I just don’t understand.
He’s a joker now, wizard of Babylon,
mouth running a marathon.
He tells his lies,
he swears they’re true.
He looked at me
he says it’s you.
He’s a broke down good for nothing
player with a rotten hand.
Why don’t you see it babe
I just can’t understand.
He’s a joker now, wizard of Babylon,
mouth running a marathon.
