A Man of Conviction
It's the way you tell them
How you cut us no slack
It's all in the timing
All part of the act
And it beats that old familiar
Shrug of the shoulders
But if everyone's a winner
I'll be on my best behaviour
Show us to our seats
I will speak only when I'm spoken to
And then just to confirm what you think
You already know
And it's all that we can do to forget
What it is we came here for
You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
You saw us coming
And I saw the signs
I could keep you in honey
I could toe your crooked party line
Everything in its own place
And in your own sweet time
Hold my skin up to the light
I have nothing left to hide
Show us to our seats
I will speak only when I'm spoken to
And then just to confirm what you think
You already know
And it's all that we can do to forget
What it is we came here for
You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family
But he's a man of conviction
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family
But he's a man of conviction
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family
But he's a man of conviction
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family alright
But he's a man of conviction
Show us to our seats
I will speak only when I'm spoken to
And then just to confirm what you think
You already know
And it's all that we can do to forget
What it is we came here for
You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours

A Man of Conviction
It's the way you tell them
How you cut us no slack
It's all in the timing
All part of the act
And it beats that old familiar
Shrug of the shoulders
But if everyone's a winner
I'll be on my best behaviour
Show us to our seats
I will speak only when I'm spoken to
And then just to confirm what you think
You already know
And it's all that we can do to forget
What it is we came here for
You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
You saw us coming
And I saw the signs
I could keep you in honey
I could toe your crooked party line
Everything in its own place
And in your own sweet time
Hold my skin up to the light
I have nothing left to hide
Show us to our seats
I will speak only when I'm spoken to
And then just to confirm what you think

You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
He's a man of conviction

That's a good-looking family
But he's a man of conviction
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family
But he's a man of conviction
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family
But he's a man of conviction
He's a man of conviction
We put the bodies in the basement
That's a good-looking family alright
But he's a man of conviction
