The Expert

(album: Lament For The Numb - 1995)

You're in the down elevator
He'll talk about metal fatigue
You just arrived in a foreign land
He'll boast he don't suffer from local diseases
Like a high roller he said read them and weep
Ain't it just enough just enough
To wanna put you to sleep

Beware beware there's an ego alert
There's an expert 12 o'clock high
Beware beware there's a million at work
They don't bother to wear no disguise

There's no room that I've been through
Where there isn't one
Some little Nazi with a mouth like a loaded gun
The big wet blanket the dummy spitter
I got a file on you yeah deep and I call it bitter

Beware beware yellow ego alert
There's an expert 12 o'clock high
Beware beware there's a million at work
And they're experts on your foolish pride
