The Grifters
Lyrics
This is a tough week for you
Backfired bar-grift that ended up
With a bat in your breadbasket
And your mom came to visit you
And grift you
And sometimes kinda seems like
She might be down for screws
It's all part of The Grift
And you know what you gotta
Do with it
It's all part of The Grift
Annette, oh Annette
You got big problems with a past grift
And maybe you had trouble
Getting past it
Cuz yer grifting friend is dead
And you might say
They are Grifters
And you'd be right
Despite the lack of Grifting
But by the time you find/figure out
They are Grifters
Assume that you've already been
Grifted by that point
And you might say
They're/it's incestual
And they might say
That it's personal
Annette Benning she don't like
Paying rent
And she would rather bang
Her fat landlord for it
And there ain't really nothing
Wrong with that
It's just that we're conservative
As a society
This is a tough week for you
Backfired bar-grift that ended up
With a bat in your breadbasket
And your mom came to visit you
And grift you
And sometimes kinda seems like
She might be down for screws
It's all part of The Grift
And you know what you gotta
Do with it
It's all part of The Grift
Annette, oh Annette
You got big problems with a past grift
And maybe you had trouble
Getting past it
Cuz yer grifting friend is dead
And you might say
They are Grifters
And you'd be right
Despite the lack of Grifting
But by the time you find/figure out
They are Grifters
Assume that you've already been
Grifted by that point
And you might say
They're/it's incestual
And they might say
That it's personal
Annette Benning she don't like
Paying rent
And she would rather bang
Her fat landlord for it
And there ain't really nothing
Wrong with that
It's just that we're conservative
As a society
