Peter Evans - Lie, Cheat and Steal lyrics

He was short on talent long on schmooze, she was easy on the eye and hard to refuse A material girl who hated to lose, and money grabbing was her favorite pursuit She was all he needed to be led astray, a heady interest with the promise of play But little did he realize the perils at bay, to be deeply invested and she walk away Lie, cheat and steal, eat or be eaten, a poisonous deal Lie, cheat and steal, they're rolling high stakes, all in for the win, no appeal She would ask him for favors and play on his doubt, she expected the best and would not be without Whether shopping at Christies or just hanging out, how long could he stand in before she found out? A matter of months and he started to slip, a telling inflection, a tightening grip He was big on the talk but too small on the tip, who was he fooling that he was legit? Lie, cheat and steal, eat or be eaten, a poisonous deal Lie, cheat and steal, they're rolling high stakes, all in for the win, no appeal Lie, cheat and steal, if you're swimming with sharks don't end up a meal
