I'm in tight with a demon called Deception It's alright he's a-treatin' 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-droppin' like the 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 how I sing a prisoner's song While 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 kicked in Something saved my skin Something saved my skin
