New Amsterdams - Son Of A Prophet lyrics

All your hangers-on

Watch with anxious eyes

Watch your mouth to speak

Words mystic and wise

Can you explain away everything

That I know to be true?

Will you flinch if I criticize

Anything about you?

Anything about you?

Wash your nervous hands

Speak and only lie

Dismiss distances

Between you and I

Can you explain away everything

That I know to be true?

Will you flinch if I criticize

Anything about you?

Anything about you?

Preacher's only son

Wise man's only tie

Scorned by anyone

With an evil eye
