Kingmaker — One False Move lyrics

Lyrics

I wooed her with a four letter word after trying too hard to be deep
I promised her uncountable things that were impossible to keep
Everywhere I seem to turn I’m letting someone down
Either my friends, my enemies, their wives or the crown
Slow
I’m getting slow
Did I make one false move that made her go?
What made her go?
Did I make one false move too soon?
She was blessed with second sight but didn’t have a licence
«She never loved me illegally» I said in her defence
«I can see the future judge!» She said in tears
«Well I can see yours», he said, «you'll be in jail for the next ten years»
Slow
I’m getting slow
Did I make one false move that made her go?
What made her go?
Did I make one false move too soon?
We settled things with a golden handshake
The law decreet it was best
She was crying when she gave me five grand
I said, «And the rest!»
Slow
I’m getting slow
Did I make one false move that made her go?
Where did she go?
Did I make one false move too soon?
Slow
I’m getting slow
Did I make one false move that made her go?
What made her go?
Did I make one false move too soon?
