amanda palmer & the grand theft orchestra - the assistant lyrics
[verse 1]
step inside this magic tent
seven wonders, 50 cents
watch the man without a face
disappear without a trace
you can’t manage by yourself
well, i am just the girl to help
you’re no good at telling lies
your hands are quicker than your eyes
[hook 1]
but do you see what i see?
do you see what i see?
[verse 2]
aren’t you such a clever man
showing off your sleight of hand?
well everyone knows you’re not true
they blindly play along with you
[hook 2]
but you don’t hear what i hear
you don’t hear what i hear
[bridge]
stick a pin in it
c’mon, he’s asking for it
stick a pin in it
c’mon, he’s asking for it
[verse 3]
you keep your slate left very clean
four blades that split a girl in three
i just wink and smile and wave
left in pieces there for days
[hook 3]
but i know something you don’t
i know something you don’t
[bridge]
stick a pin in it
c’mon, he’s asking for it
stick a pin in it
c’mon, he’s asking for it
stick a pin in it
i’m getting sick of this
can’t stand the lights
and i can’t stand the sight of blood
stick a pin in it
hey, honey, picture it
they’re gonna love this one
they’re gonna eat it up
stick a pin in it
i’m getting sick of this
i want my mom and dad
[outro]
go get a new -ssistant
go get a new -ssistant
go get a new -ssistant
go get a new -ssistant
go get a new -ssistant
