about

I had the idea for this one about ten years ago when I was sitting in a Vegas casino watching people lose money they clearly couldn't afford. I liked the idea of making promises you have no intention of keeping, basically saying anything to get the big guy upstairs on your side so you don't lose your shirt. The demo's been kicking around for ages but it's taken a long time to finish: it's harder to sing than it sounds.

lyrics

I don't believe in you
but maybe there's a deal we can do
i'm not the praying kind
but I'll promise anything to get you on my side
i'll pay my taxes on time
I'll wear a cape and fight crime
don't let me lose tonight

I've been around the block
know what I am and I know what I'm not
I've had my share of sin and we both know
I'd do it all again
I need an intervention
I swear I'll be a better man
don't let me lose tonight
