Lure you in with a false promise

I swear to always be honest

Never leave you behind

Oh Darling, you'll learn im anything but kind

Say one thing, I'll do the other

If there was a next time you'd be careful when choosing a lover

I'm agony disguised as lust

Oh love, if only you'd been wise when deciding who to trust

Now come to me my one and only

A white lie won't hurt the lonely

By the time I finish my game

You will know nothing but pain

Manipulative is what they call me

They say that woman is just in it for money

It's not true my love. I'm in it for you

I bring companionship and a promise to stay true

Promise is for a short time

But still it brings you peace of mind

As I watch you smile at me and begin to tire

I smile back then light the match to my fire

As I watch smoke fill the air I feel no shame

Oh how I enjoy playing the husband game

Walking away with my winnings and a map

I send thanks to the devil for helping with my trap
