Suckas Gotta Know
Suckas gotta know
Their mamas never loved them
Their daddys never loved them
Suckas gotta know
They ARE the clown they pretend
To be
Suckas gotta know
The show don't travel
Every town already got
25 suckas doin' it better
Suckas gotta know
Suckas die early bent
And hated and with nothin
But the memories they stole
From others
Suckas gotta know
They hurt children who left
Town believing in a world
Full of boogiemen
Suckas gotta know
Good men made fools
Of themselves harboring them
Only to be repaid with
A Judas kiss
Suckas gotta know
No one bought the show
Everyone believed the bad reviews
Suckas gotta know
They are reflections of reflections
Of someone else's light shined
In a galaxy far away long ago
Suckas gotta know
The only real sucka is a man who
Lives his whole life and ain't got
Nothin to show and no one who trusts him
And nothin' but pity from those
He victimizes
Oh, but suckas already know
Suckas gotta know
Their mamas never loved them
Their daddys never loved them
Suckas gotta know
They ARE the clown they pretend
To be
Suckas gotta know
The show don't travel
Every town already got
25 suckas doin' it better
Suckas gotta know
Suckas die early bent
And hated and with nothin
But the memories they stole
From others
Suckas gotta know
They hurt children who left
Town believing in a world
Full of boogiemen
Suckas gotta know
Good men made fools
Of themselves harboring them
Only to be repaid with
A Judas kiss
Suckas gotta know
No one bought the show
Everyone believed the bad reviews
Suckas gotta know
They are reflections of reflections
Of someone else's light shined
In a galaxy far away long ago
Suckas gotta know
The only real sucka is a man who
Lives his whole life and ain't got
Nothin to show and no one who trusts him
And nothin' but pity from those
He victimizes
Oh, but suckas already know
