Lyrics
You've got a way with words
You always put me down with so much style
A way with words
I can't compete with you or Oscar Wilde, oh no
You've got a way with words
Samuel Johnson's got nothing on you
A way with words
A lie from you can come out ringing true, oh no, oh no
I can never win, I can never win
Cause if you miss me with your bullet
You hit me with your gun
You got away with it
You started it and kept it going on
A way with words
Someone has to lose when you have won, oh no
You've got a way with words
Too much talk and not enough thought
The last word goes to you, oh no, oh no
I can never win, I can never win
Cause if you miss me with your bullet
You hit me with your gun
