The Genius and The Gangster - General Elektriks

It’s a real shame

How you do what you do

When you’re done doing the things

That got us hooked

You know the things that got you famous

Was it you who came?

Or the man with the plans

That you’re hiding in the glitter in your eyes

Cooking up a new lie

I don’t really wanna know

I wouldn’t want to spoil the show

I wish you success but I must confess

You’re a genius and a gangster

I wish you success but I must confess

You’re a genius and a gangster

In the distance lies a town set ablaze

By a man spitting fire when he talks

The ground shakes when he walks

Now he’s at your door

And the floor crackles, and the air sizzles

The handle is red hot

You take a step back in amazement

Are you gonna open the door?

You wouldn’t want to spoil the show?

I wish you success but I must confess

You’re a genius and a gangster

I wish you success but I must confess

You’re a genius and a gangster
