Lyrics
last seen at the club flashing money that he doesn't have
Next thing he'll be begging for some change.. to make ends.... meet again
And he pleads for the chance to become... a real man... again
so the feeding caries on like it never mattered anyway... and again, and again
I'll never know if he loves me for my money or just because I'm somebody w/ a sucker bleeding heart
Here today gone tommorrow & he'll be back when I don't want him around to make his promises made of rubber
He'll still find someone with sympathy
Just like an un-tapped market only he can see
but then they realize this is just a game that he plays
& again & again & again & again
HE'S A MASQUITO
5-9 A PERFECT TEN & A SCHOLAR
DRIVING MERCEDIES BENZES Looking FINE, HE'S NOTHING BUT TROUBLE
HE'LL MAKE YOU THINK THAT YOU LOVE HIM & WHILE HE'S SLEEPING WITH YOUR FRIENDS HE'S MAKING LO-VE TO YOUR MONEY
If you see a man...
with a crooked grin...
Wearing his fancy disguise
boots made of Ostrich skin
if he arives at your door
don't you let him in
he won't... hang around for too long
but he will.. be back again
we thought that time on the inside
would clear the mind.. (but I never k)
but I never knew how (so)many ways a man could tell a lie
How (so)many chances can (someone)a man get in one life
Who's counting.. Nobody's counting
When the greed lies deep w/in your soul
& you had a real good time,
but you've got nothing to show
& now you're... too far gone to make it back to the top
& so starts again
you can't back but then
He'll still find someone with sympathy
Just like an un-tapped market only he can see
but then they realize this is just a game that he plays
& again & again & again & again
HE'S A MASQUITO
5-9 A PERFECT TEN & A SCHOLAR
DRIVING MERCEDIES BENZES Looking FINE, HE'S NOTHING BUT TROUBLE
HE'LL MAKE YOU THINK THAT YOU LOVE HIM & WHILE HE'S SLEEPING WITH YOUR FRIENDS HE'S MAKING LO-VE TO YOUR MONEY
(repeat)
