The Magician

You watch every move
And call it sleight of hand
You know it’s what I do
But never who I am
Never who I am
Started on the street
With cards and dollar bills
Shuffling my feet
I never could be still
Never could be still
I am an orphan, man, but ain’t we all?
I can make myself disappear
I am an orphan, man, but ain’t we all?
I know there’s somewhere worse than here
I had a bride
I sawed her in half
Couple people cried
But most of them just laughed
Most of them just laughed
And I had a son
Strong of hand and will
I taught him how to run
But never how to steal
Never how to steal
I am an orphan, man, but ain’t we all?
I can make myself disappear
I am an orphan, man, but ain’t we all?
I could be somewhere worse than here
I was called amazing
And I made folks believe
With nothing in my pockets
And nothing up my sleeve
I am an orphan, man, but ain’t we all?
I can make myself disappear
I am an orphan, man, but ain’t we all?
And I know there’s somewhere worse than here
Worse than here
Worse than here
