Tell All

Casting shadows after midnight
(Better run and hide)
Nothing changes but the blackened skies
(Day or night)

But when the lights come on at the end of the pier
The man will know the enemy is near
If you fight for your life
You don’t stand a chance to get out alive

Tell me the secrets
The tools of the trade
Tell me all I need to know about having it made
Just give me step by step
Give me all the details
I just want to know how to come out unscathed

The waves are strong and the winds are cold
(At night on the boardwalk)
The deal goes down at 0200 sharp
(At the loading dock)

But a surprise occurs when a different boat arrives
The ones aboard are the ones you despise
You have to quick
It’s the name of the game, they say
Call in the big guns

Tell me the secrets
The tools of the trade
Tell me all I need to know about having it made
Just give me step by step
Give me all the details
I just want to know how to come out unscathed

I think something here is getting at you
I don’t know if you can breathe
I am wondering where you are right now
Can you see me?
Can you feel me?
Can you hear me?
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ah

Tell me the secrets
The tools of the trade
Tell me all I need to know about having it made
Just give me step by step
Give me all the details
I just want to know how to come out unscathed

Yeah
