Your Latest Trick Lyrics - Sultans Of Swing - Dire Straits & Mark Knopfler

All the late night bargains have been struck 

Between the satin beans and their bells 

Prehistoric garbage trucks 

Got the city to themselves 

Echoes and the roars dinosaurs 

They're all doing the monster mash 

And most of the taxis and the whores 

Are only taking calls for cash 

I don't know how it happened 

It all took place so quick 

But all I can do is hand it to you 

And your latest trick 

My door was standing open 

Security was laid back and lax 

But it was only my heart got broken 

You must have had a pass key made out of wax 

You played robbery with insolence 

And I played the blues in twelve bars on Lover's Lane 

And you never did have the intelligence to use 

The twelve keys hanging off my chain 

I don't know how it happened 

It all took place so quick 

But all I can do is hand it to you 

And your latest trick 

Now it's past last call far alcohol 

Past recall has been here and gone 

The landlord finally paid us all 

The satin jazzmen have put away their horns 

And we're standing outside of these wonderlands 

Looking so bereaved and so bereft 

Like a bowery bum when he finally understands 

The bottle's empty and there's nothing left 

I don't know how it happened 

It was faster than the eye could flick 

But all I can do is hand it to you 

And your latest trick
