He's got it all figured
Feels like he's standing on a cloud
Above the thunder and the rain
The sky's the limit is his claim
His mind like stars within the night
The moon can't feed his appetite
Cause he won't stop until he sees
Their plans eclipsed by his glory
Oh boy is this everything you ever wanted?
Oh boy is this everything you dreamed?
Oh boy you can lie and cheat til you're exhausted
But I know all about your schemes
He sees it all in his mind
Oh it's a life we'd call sublime
He locks the gates up to his house
Loves their attention but he'd rather leave them out
One of my favorite albums of all time. Beautifully written thought-provoking lyrics, and plenty of guitars to shred your face off all at the same time. Zach Wolfe & The Coyotes
Released in 2001, “The Convincer” is a gentle gem in the Nick Lowe catalog; an anniversary edition provides opportunity for rediscovery. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2021
