lyrics

The Man Who Calls The Shots

He lies while the facts are burned
Laughs when he's alone
He hides in the cracks and turns every heart to stone

He'll take all you have to give
Everything you've got
You wake up to find you're with
The man who calls the shots

Every time you read and understand the meaning of his words
They softly and mysteriously blind you
When the signs that lead you by the hand to take you from his world
That's when he'll easily find you

Every time you read and understand the meaning of his words
They softly and mysteriously blind you
When the signs that lead you by the hand to take you from his world
That's when he'll easily find you
You'll swear he's there

Beware of the games he plays
They'll tie you up in knots
You'll live every word he says
The man who calls the shots
