Cunning Casanova - The Cog is Dead

There’s a man in the darkness of the night

A cunning casanova who’s as sharp as a knife

He’ll swoop right in and whisper in your ear

And tell you sweet young ladies just what you want to hear

Big flashy smile, sure and in control

And piercing eyes that seem to look right into your soul

Feels like a dream with his arms around you wrapped

But then before you know it now he’s got you trapped!

He’s the kind of man who’ll take you by the hand

Promise you the earth, the moon and stars

But behind those eyes is a cesspool full of lies

He’ll use you up and leave you only scars

But I don’t think he’ll get far!

A sneaky thief, he goes from town to town

To find a lonely victim he can go take down

He plays the prince, makes them think he’s a big shot

He woos 'em and he weds 'em then he takes all they got

He targets in on his next potential prey

A gal named Katie Ledford who he thinks he’ll sweep away

He makes his move, tries to look like he’s a catch

But little does he know that he’s just met his match!

He’s the kind of man who’ll take you by the hand

Promise you the earth, the moon and stars

But behind those eyes is a cesspool full of lies

He’ll use you up and leave you only scars

But I know he won’t get far!

So Katie waits as he moves in, she knows that he’s no good

He sings his song she plays along just like he hoped she would

They dine and dance the night away, he can’t believe his luck

He says «Why don’t we catch a ride?»

she says «Let's take my truck.»

And so he goes along and he hops in the truck with her

He thinks, «This one was easy!»

as his vision starts to blur

Then things go dark, and when he awakens next

He’s locked inside a room and facing every ex!

She’s the kind of girl who’ll take you for a whirl

Makes you think that she’s an easy prey

But she’s way too wise, and sees though all your lies

And if you try her you won’t get away

'Cause she’s gonna make you pay!
