Walkin' The Wire (Demo Version 1994) Lyrics

Slowly climbing to the top of your career

Been doin' fine for all of these years

Still you want more, always more

I see your disguise when you walk through my door

See your disguise when you walk through my door

You are walkin' the wire

Step by step getting' higher

You are walkin' the wire

You don't wanna be a cheater or a liar

a cheater or a liar

When you're walkin' the wire

Acceptin' all the things they'd say

The tempting smell of green makes you greedy

You'll be satisfied when they'll pay

Offerin' your services for a whole lotta zero's

Dancin' on the edge of the law

Burnin' your fingers on a hot case

Still your screamin' conscience says no

You are walkin' the wire

Step by step getting' higher

You are walkin' the wire

You don't wanna be a cheater or a liar

a cheater or a liar

When you're walkin' the wire

The game is over, give yourself up

'Cause you're fallin' deeper and deeper

Can't you see if you reach the top

You can only, only go down

You can only, only go down…

Can't you see if you reach the top

You can only, go down…

The game is over, just give yourself up

'Cause you're fallin' deeper and deeper

Can't you see if you reach the top

You can only, only go down

The game is over, give yourself up

'Cause you're fallin' deeper and deeper

Can't you see if you reach the top

You can only, only go down

The game is over, just give yourself up

'Cause you can only go down
