That Guy

I saw a guy chasing a fix
He knew all kinds of magic tricks
Doing anything he can just to get by
With his last 30 bucks
He tried to turn around his luck
Trying to get one more over, he's that guy

He knows every single joke
Never mentions just how broke he is
Always laughing even when he feels like crying
It's all or nothing from the start
Built to run or fall apart
It's easy living even when you're tired of dying
Even when you're tired of dying

Each week he's got a new scheme
Each night he's got a new dream
Hiding behind smiles and disguises
No defending his past choices
Always speaks with different voices
That guy's always full of surprises
He's full of surprises

He knows everyone by name
And all those nicknames are the same
And everyone he knows is his best friend
But when the evening's through
He ain't learned a thing or two
All kinds of lonely when the night is at an end
When the night is at an end

Each week he's got a new scheme
Each night he's got a new dream
Hiding behind smiles and disguises
No defending his past choices
Always speaks with different voices
That guy's always full of surprises
He's full of surprises

Oh, he's full of surprises
Oh, he's full of surprises
He's full of surprises

'Cause that guy's so used to losing
Waking up and boozing
Drinking 'til the well is dry
He'll pull the snake oil out the bag
To pull the wool over your eyes
A grifter through and through
He's that guy, ohhh

Does that guy ever get tired
Of always feelin' wired
But if you slow down, you don't know who you are
So that guy just moves along
Finding new ways to do wrong
That guy never has to look that far

Each week he's got a new scheme
Each night he's got a new dream
Hiding behind smiles and disguises
No defending his past choices
Always speaks with different voices
That guy's always full of surprises
He's full of surprises

Oh, he's full of surprises
Oh, he's full of surprises
He's full of surprises
