Buzzards Of Love - Jim White

Wonder if you know, what you see ain’t what you get.

Wonder have you learned a

dirty word — did you forget?

'Cause

There’s talk on the street… say sugar taste sweet… but it’ll tear you apart.

.

when what’s easy on the eyes… is hard on the

Heart… when you’re loving… loving on them buzzards.

See the shiny-winged

angel things catch your eye in the big parade

You think you got it made.

It’s all monkey see, monkey do, but in the end the

joke’s on you.

It ain’t nothing but a big

Charade.

Watch the money talk… see the suckers walk… feel the lonely ache…

take its toll, soul-sucking pain, yeah

Everybody knows… that’s just how it goes… when you’re loving,

loving on them buzzards.

Funny how you feel, like a thing is

Real, just 'cause it feels good — You know what I’m saying?

Yeah yeah.

Funny how you run straight for the gun when you

Know when the fun is done ain’t nothing but hell to pay.

See the face in the

mirror, it looks alone and afraid.

Well, if

You think you a player, most times it’s you that’s getting played by them

buzzards buzzards buzzards buzzards, them
