The Silhouet – Charlatan's Ride lyrics

Hah! No, a no no…

You walk into the lab; it’s time to seal the deal
We’ll sign the contract later
He sees in your eyes anticipation and declares,
“You’re gonna be a big star, you’re gonna be a big star”

Sing muthafucker, pour your soul out and sing some more!
You’re a badass, everyone knows it, now take the floor!
Sing muthafucker, so the kids can know what you sing for!
And if you do me these favors, you’re a fuckin’ whore

They’ll waste your life, they don’t care
Leaving it up to the money
They’ll take your time and your fare
Yea, it’s really crummy

What is in your heart? – it makes no difference to him
The Charlatan will go on with his games

Back in the booth; it’s time I let him know
This isn’t feeling right, but he’s in control
He’s got the soundboard lit up, and the speakers turned up
And he says, “You’re gonna be a big star, you’re gonna be a big
Star”

Sing muthafucker, pour your soul out and sing some more!
You’re a badass, everyone knows it, now take the floor!
Sing muthafucker, so the kids can know what you sing for!
And if you do me these favors, you’re a fuckin’ whore

They’ll waste your life, they don’t care
Leaving it up to the money
They’ll take your time and your fare
Yea, it’s really crummy

Leaving it up to the money, Living it up for the money
