Reelin' in the Suckers Songtext
Your reason must be more than naked fascination
You don't convince me with your phoney occupation
We are not debris, we are not weakness
But you still pile us on the refuse
Your disposal, we are old news

A naked flame reflects a shadow on a blank wall
Effect desired by the ugliest of liars
Click click, the subject
Catching your profile
Move the crowd on, call the papers
Move them out, employ the fakers

(chorus)
Reelin' in the suckers
Life's destruction all over you
You don't even know it
Bite the bullet and keep it real
Reelin' in the suckers
Sucked you up and then they spat you out

If you don't follow then, you better make a new den
One that protects you from the fury of "the real men"
They walk in circles just to confuse you
And when you look away they choose you
Strap you down and then abuse you

(chorus)

And now your voice is sticking like a broken record The tape is tangled and the message you can't recall
The plot is lifeless, no need to bicker
Brain deceiver, dead believer,
Message no more, lone deceiver

(chorus)
