The cracks are starting to show
Time catches up ya know
If you were a woman
They’d call you a **
But you’d still be a *******
Even so
And your star-like patina
Is losing its glow

The scars of history
Will make certain
That all of the women
You’re hurtin’
Will come out
From behind their glass curtain
To put an end
To the abuse and flirtin’

Now you can go on
And pretend
Karma won’t get ya
In the end
But I’ve got news
For you friend
The ark of justice
Is long but it bends

What’s that old paradigm?
You can fool all the people
Sometimes
But you can’t get away
With your crimes
When we still see
The same telltale signs
Which only serves to remind
