Gotcha (Live)
Did you ever think a piano
Could fall on your head?
Do you look over
Your shoulder at all?
On the dark side of passion
Comes a taste for revenge
In the night is there
A rustle just under you bed?
Are the bolts dead?
Is the phone live?
Are you wide, wide
Awake?
Are you surprised a battle-ax
Has an ax to grind?
It's tit for tat
And all's fair in love
A mercenary man
With a dutful wife
The tables have turnerd
The plot is prime
Are the lights on?
'Cause the bet's off
Are you wide, wide
Awake?
I gotcha comin'
I gotcha goin'
The IRS
Is in your mail
Your edifice is starting
To crack and peel
Your girlfriend is starting
To panic and steal
Whatever's left
Of a small piece
Of a small pie
Of a small man
With a much smaller life
Did you mistake "fat and happy"
For stupid and blind?
Do you know
That I knew from the start?
A tooth for a tooth
An eye for an eye
This taxidermist
Has skinned you alive
Are the dogs in?
Cause the cat's out
Are you wide, wide
Awake?
Could fall on your head?
Do you look over
Your shoulder at all?
On the dark side of passion
Comes a taste for revenge
In the night is there
A rustle just under you bed?
Are the bolts dead?
Is the phone live?
Are you wide, wide
Awake?
Are you surprised a battle-ax
Has an ax to grind?
It's tit for tat
And all's fair in love
A mercenary man
With a dutful wife
The tables have turnerd
The plot is prime
Are the lights on?
'Cause the bet's off
Are you wide, wide
Awake?
I gotcha comin'
I gotcha goin'
The IRS
Is in your mail
Your edifice is starting
To crack and peel
Your girlfriend is starting
To panic and steal
Whatever's left
Of a small piece
Of a small pie
Of a small man
With a much smaller life
Did you mistake "fat and happy"
For stupid and blind?
Do you know
That I knew from the start?
A tooth for a tooth
An eye for an eye
This taxidermist
Has skinned you alive
Are the dogs in?
Cause the cat's out
Are you wide, wide
Awake?
