Gonna tell you a story,On a cold winter's nightYou've been sailing for glory,Before you know what is rightSo come over here now,I got a vision for youIt's my personal snake oil,It's just something I doI'm the jester with no tears,And I'm playing on your fearsI'm a trickster smiling underneathThis mask of love and deathThe eternal lie I've toldAbout the pyramids of goldI've got you hooked at every turnYour money's left to burn(hahaha)You'll be wanting a contract Ha!You'll be waiting awhileI'd like to give you my contact,But that isn't my styleWell you only get one chanceAnd it's too good to missIf I didn't lie to ya, then I wouldn't existGreed, lust and envy cry,It's the same old same old lieThe Smoke and mirrors,Visions that you see are just like meI'm a clever manWhose face is just a little outta placeI know Someone just like youKnows someone just like meEl Dorado come and playEl Dorado stuck this wayTake a ticket for the rideEl Dorado streets of goldSee the ship is almost soldYou got one last chance to trySo gone is the glory,And gone is the goldWell if you knew the story,How come it has to be toldWell you can say I'm a devilAnd I wouldn't say noBut out here on the darkside,Hey! on with the showSo then my tale is told,Big and bad and twice as boldThis Ship of fools is sinking,As the cracks begin to growThere is no easy way,For an honest man todayWhich is something you should think ofAs my lifeboat sails awayEl Dorado come and playEl Dorado stuck this wayTake a ticket for the rideEl Dorado streets of goldSee the ship is almost soldYou got one last chance to tryEl Dorado come and playEl Dorado's left this wayTake a ticket for the rideEl Dorado streets of goldSee the ship is almost soldYou got one last chance to try
