Your Card

In my legendary monkey suit for the crowd again
Will there be kids? They’re always mean and crude
And my pocket’s always dirty from the rabbit food
Is this your card?
I could draw you in six straight lines
Know the words you’re gonna say before they come into your mind
I could disappear in a cloud of smoke
Before you even knew to ask if it was all a joke
Is this your card?
Growing tired of wearing the same blank mask
Growing tired of knowing before you do what you’ll ask
Every trick has now become the same to me
Don’t even need the money I just do it for the company
Is this your card?
I spread the deck in a perfect fan
You think you chose the card you’re taking from my hand
I only wish that I didn’t understand
Never any magic left for the magic man
However long I live I’m never gonna match the Great Lorayne
Don’t deserve the word Amazing that comes before my name
I can’t hold my breath as long as Kid McGee
Never gonna be anyone anyone would ever want to be
Is this your card?
