5. Swindle (6:26)
The smell of riches tempts
The circuit game of chance [STEP RIGHT UP!]
Sounds of gleeful chants
All in on one last dance [PLACE YOUR BETS!]

Sleepy heads flash awake
Only to fall away [AND THEY'RE OFF]
Plundered in plain sight
Won't leave without a fight [WHAT A DEVELOPMENT!]

Masks move about [A high class fray, yes?]
In awe of the key [Trivial trinkets, yes?]
Worth a king's ransom [50 BILLION CLAUDIA!]
Or my silence it seems [YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE!]

Blackout
Fake out
You've been tricked into a fake
Under darkness
I can make my getaway
You've been swindled
Egos wane in front of me
Four lines answered
Only one to memory

Rematch for the jokes before
Loss will leave your ego sore, a lighter store
Neck and neck you keep up till the final lap
Heavy with a burden, you don't stand a chance

[Oooh, so we meet again! So glad to see you're doing so well! Tell you what. If I win, you have to tell me your real name. How does that sound, Immelmann? I won't go easy on you. WHAT SAY YOU!?]

I won't leave your side
I'll be here, always
You see different skies
Trust in me when I say
I can lift you up
I'm the air in your wings
I hope it's enough
