Pour the gasoline and watch the flames rise
I’ll give you nothing for something while you’re mesmerised
Dog-whistle obscenity
Playing with identity
I’ll stand before the world and bring it to its knees
I AM THE CONFIDENCE MAN
AND I’LL GET JUST WHAT I CAN
A RECKLESS FIREBRAND
I AM THE CONFIDENCE MAN
AND I’LL DO ANYTHING I CAN
TO TAKE FROM YOU THE PROMISED LAND
I am the light, I am the way
Idolise me
You are the mark, You are the prey
Bow before me
Predatory vanity
Vulnerable insanity
I’ll take the world and leave you nothing but disease
I AM THE CONFIDENCE MAN
AND I’LL GET JUST WHAT I CAN
A RECKLESS FIREBRAND
I AM THE CONFIDENCE MAN
AND I’LL DO EVERYTHING I CAN
TO ENACT THE MASTERPLAN
AND TAKE THE HIGHEST OFFICEIN THE LAND
Empowered with your fervent trust in me
And now you're under my spell
A blind faith devotee
I am the light, I am the way
Bow before me
I am the light, I am the way
You are the mark, You are the prey
I’ll bleed you dry and lead the world into decay
I AM THE CONFIDENCE MAN
AND I’LL GET JUST WHAT I CAN
A RECKLESS FIREBRAND
I AM THE CONFIDENCE MAN
AND I’LL DO ANYTHING I CAN
TO TAKE FROM YOU THE PROMISED LAND
A pig in lipstick with my snake in the grass
I’ll deliver nothing but hell
A long game that’s truly first class
You are the mark, You are the prey
Idolise me
Empowered with your fervent trust in me
And now you're under my spell
A blind faith devotee
