Canción de la semana: "A Cheater's Armoury", de Hanne Hukkelberg



Canción: A Cheater's Armoury
Autora e intérprete: Hanne Hukkelberg
Disco: Rykestraße 68 (2006)

Letra:

All above board,
And we see nothing at all.
Clean and empty hands,
But still there’s something lurking.
We believe you when you lie
Buy your word, -then you deny,
Pay your wealth, -you leave us high and dry

You gamester,
You tell us our
Fortunes by your cards
And you’re rubbing
Yourself deep
Into our wounds.

You gamester
You fool us
We watch your spinning wheel
And we scratch
And we itch,
And the longer it
Takes for us
To heal.

You promise ten birds
-In the bush,
Each and every sunday
Sell your ”letters of indulgens”
We believe you when you lie
Buy your word, -then you deny,
Pay your wealth, -you leave us high and dry
A cheater’s armoury

All you’ve got
Is shifty eyes,
A black dress,
A false name.
