Lyrics

Trust Me Billy

[Verse 1]

Holding onto a horsehead lighter

Flick the bic and I seem brighter

Can you hear that distant laughter?

Desperate men making empty chatter

[Verse 2]

This is the time of legal tender

That is a call that's always answered

I was denied and not pushed forward

Choking up, what a sad, old bastard

Fox is hidden in the bramble

I was caught when I was youthful

[Chorus]

Pray that you will never be found

Life is living on your own

Trust me Billy, I'm still smiling

Trust me Billy, I'm still smiling

[Outro]

Pray that you will never be found

Life is living on your own
