I'm in tight with a demon called deception   It's alright he's a treating me quite well   I'm in tight with a demon called deception   He's right beside me when I fail      To whisper words like brother nothin' here is any good   See the birds they're a dropping like a star wormwood   And all I wanted was a little patch of green   We were peasants and the cotton was our king      And in the fields till I sing a prisoner's song   Well deception whistles right along   Right along      Charlie sang for a pocket full of pills   While deception was a clickin' his high heels   We're in tight playing seven one night stands   And deception made me as I am      As I am   As I am   As I am   As I am   I'm in tight   I'm in tight   I'm in tight      Truth is I'm in tight   I barely saw the light   Just as it clicked in   Something saved my skin   Something saved my skin
