Handcuffs For Houdini Lyrics

Handcuffs For Houdini lyrics

MacMichael



Don't talk about commitment

don't talk about it here

don't talk about the russians

don't mention your fears

don't talk about the black man

don't talk about the rope

it only causes problems

we got plenty of those, i said



don't talk about it, don't talk...



sing a song of sixpence

a packet full of lies

don't dare to love your children

just let the baby cry

but when the pie was opened

they'd forgotten how to sing

there was larry, moe and curly joe

and martin luther king....



(don't talk about it)



like handcuffs for houdini

this whole thing is a con

you know what's gonna happen

but you don't know how it's done

somebody he once told me

that the key was in his mouth

like handcuffs and houdini

it looks so simple

but you just can't work it out



don't talk about it, don't talk...
