I could stand but I dont like the feeling
I could fall but Im always on the floor
You could make a million staring at the ceiling
Ou could break your back and still be poor

One for the liar
One for the cheat
One for the man who youll never meet
Piece of the action and a portion of pie
Theyll be there waiting when your big chance comes by

Theres a snake on top of every ladder
Who will tell you that hes your best friend
Everyone important needs an adder
But subtraction gets you in the end

One for the liar
One for the cheat
One for the man who youll never meet
Piece of the action and a portion of pie
Theyll be there waiting when your big chance comes by

They dont care they dont mind
The in-betweens will steal you blind
I dont know I cant say
It seems its always been this way
You wont feel or complain
The gentle leech will cause no pain
