Mistook Me For A Friend Ft The Imposters Letras

You took me in the stairwell light
Mistook me for a friend
A sign said, "Follow me into the night"
Mistook me for a friend
Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend



I had a pocket full of presidents, a suitcase full of elements

The double-cross of spectacles, the mogul for mechanicals

Rainy streets were gleaming, maybe I was dreaming

She thought that she heard wedding bells, a hundred thousand decibels



That crush and her confectioner said (Yеah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook you for a friend

Shе took my temperature (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend



You took your clothes off after you sent him away

Why now, baby, would you ask for me to stay?

I knew it wasn't right

If I could just pretend

Mistook you for a friend



I was working miracles for petty cash and chemicals

Dealt in the invisible, something close to criminal

Don't act so mysterious, pretend you're not curious

Started out peculiar, ended up notorious

Milady and her jockey said (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook you for a friend

"This wine is going to my head" (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend



I saw you slumming last night out on Poverty Row

Why you lacked the nerve to leave him, I will never know

You took my glass and my ball of twine

While the words would blur and the windward whine

When I had no place to go

I said that I want you



I count my money out to pay for contraband

I carry velvet gloves 'cause the blood gets on your hands

It's easy to comprehend

Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend



I had a pocket full of presidents, a suitcase full of elements

Double-cross of spectacles, a tycoon made of tentacles

Went to the carnival for candy and confusion

From a House of Silence on a street of disillusion



That crush and her confectioner said (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook you for a friend

She took my temperature (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook you for a friend

Try being free as you think you are (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook you for a friend

See where it gets you and quite how far (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend

Mistook me for a friend



Mistook me for a friend
