Testo Your Latest Trick - Dire Straits
Testo della canzone Your Latest Trick (Dire Straits), tratta dall'album Sultans of Swing - The Very Best of Dire Straits
All the late night bargains have been struck
Between the satin beaus and their bells
Prehistoric garbage trucks
Got the city to themselves
Echoes and horrors, dinosaurs
They're all doing the monster mash
The taxis and the whores
Are only taking calls for cash
I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick
All I can do
Is hand it to you
And your latest trick
Now my door was standing open
Security was laid back and lax
Yeah, my heart had got a broken
You must have had a passkey made out of wax
It was robbery with insolence
And I'm playin' the blues in twelve bars down the Lover's Lane
You never had the intelligence for the use
Twelve keys hanging off of my chain
You know now how it happened
It all took place so quick
But all I can do
Is hand it to you
And your latest trick
It's past last call for alcohol
Past recall has been here and gone
The landlord, he finally paid us all
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns
And I was standing there outside in this wonderland
Bereaved and bereft
Finally come to understand
The bottle's empty, man, there's nothing left
Know now how it happened
It was faster than the eye could flick
But all I can do
Is hand it to you
And your latest trick
