Testo di The Trade

I'm on a roll, out of control Another one-night stand I can't get away 'cause i'm on display But i can't see you, man Smile for the cameras, smile for the fans Sign their records and shake their hands Try to stay healthy, try to get laid Make it to the show, that's the trade Smile for the cameras, smile for the fans Sign their records and shake their hands Try to stay healthy, try to get laid Make it to the show, that's the trade I sleep all day on the freeway On the bus between each gig I'm making my living singing my songs Doing my thing, dig I had a dream, so i made some plans Things have a way of working out I found a few people and formed a band Taught myself how to shout Smile for the cameras, smile for the fans Sign their records and shake their hands Try to stay healthy, try to get laid Make it to the show, that's the trade Write down stuff you feel strongly about Others may feel the same And before you know it, you might be a big star And everyone will know your name When you learn the trade and you're on display You can't get away Everyone knows that name, everyone knows our name Everyone knows my name
