Grifter's Grief

Disbelief when they got grifted for the prize Young and gifted Sifted through the grave for a taste of danger Got washed away on a way-stranger wave See fairer ways to discount the nature Count yer coffins Shaft yer pallbearers, all's fair in all areas If you're not all there when I'm all in I'll sing through gritted teeth If someone beat you to it, naa naa It's just grifter's grief Grifter's grief But how you coping? Grifter's grief You're dealing with grifter's grief Grifter's grief Choking on your own tears Grifter's grief, grifter's grief, grifter's grief I sleep beneath an ancient tree that looms over the heath With a head of empty threats, lay on a bed of stolen dog teeth As our prayers all turn to begging When beholden to a sun that left us sowing seeds For summer down the barrel of a gun I forgot armageddon stops at the mercy of the chief So, taste the tears and prosper or obliterate your grief Grifter's grief, grifter's grief, grifter's grief, grifter's grief Grifter's grief, grifter's grief, grifter's grief Will we fight them on the beaches for the bleaching of the reef?
