   DESPERATE MEN DO DESPERATE THINGS

   You can while away our hours you can talk in tongues
   Throw you promises baby until kingdom come
   Cast your bread upon the waters see what it may bring
   Desperate men do desperate things

   Come on talk to me baby talk big and be brave
   It’s not your only reputation that your trying to save
   I’ve had you under observation your into various pain
   And desperate men do desperate things

   (Bridge)
   Come on out of your daydream go some other place
   Wipe the tear from your eyes wipe the smile
   from your face
   before you lose another lover to the night and to
   the rain
   Cause desperate men do desperate things

   Let it out baby stir it up and mix it in
   Two parts religion three parts sin
   It’s the truth or consequences because the new
   king reigns
   And desperate men do desperate things

   Your can while away your hours you can talk in
   tongues
   Throw you promises baby into kingdom come
   Cast your bread upon the waters see what it may
   bring
