El Dorado - 2015 Remaster

Gotta tell you a story

On a cold winter's night

You'll be sailing for glory

Before you know what is right

So come over here now

I got a vision for you

It's my personal snake oil

It's just something I do

I'm the jester with no tears

And I'm playing on your fears

I'm a trickster smiling underneath this mask of love and death

The eternal lie I've told

About the pyramids of gold

I've got you hooked at every turn, your money's left to burn

(Hahahaha)

You'll be wanting a contract, ha

You'll be waiting a while

I'd like to give you my contact

But that isn't my style

Well you only get one chance

And it's too good to miss

If I didn't lie to you

Then I wouldn't exist

Greed, lust and angry pride

It's the same old, same old ride

The smoke and mirrors visions that you see are just like me

I'm a clever banker's face

With just a letter out of place

I know someone just like you knows someone just like me

El Dorado, come and play

El Dorado, step this way

Take a ticket for the ride

El Dorado streets of gold

See my ship is oversold

You got one last chance to try

So gone is the glory

And gone is the gold

Well if you knew the story

How come it has to be told

Well you can say I'm a devil

And I wouldn't say no

But out here on the dark side

Hey, on with the show

So now my tale is told

Big and bad and twice as bold

This ship of fools is sinking as the cracks begin to grow

There is no easy way

For an honest man today

Which is something you should think of as my lifeboat sails away

El Dorado, come and play

El Dorado, step this way

Take a ticket for the ride

El Dorado streets of gold

See my ship is oversold

You got one last chance to try

El Dorado, come and play

El Dorado, step this way

Take a ticket for the ride

El Dorado streets of gold

See my ship is oversold

You got one last chance to try
