Sneaker lyrics

He's the common mans ideal The almighty voice you hear Wearing such a good honest appeal Civil servant in attention Innocent in every mention But his true aim he will soon reveal Don't lay you faith into his hands And trust the things for which he stands Perverting the law that is his game He is the preacher of today He's the mist in your way Forget your chance to repay Nothing to do but obey Sneakers will stay Reaches top so indiscreet Falling, cheating those he meets Breaking promises he'll never mind Twist around with every mission And fullfiling your suspicion Soon you realize you have been blind Don't lay your faith into his hands And trust the things for which he stands Perverting the law that is his game He is the preacher of today He's the mist in your way Forget your chance to repay Nothing to do but obey Sneakers will stay
