Wicked Web Lyrics - Waterdeep

You told me you had money 

Coming down the way 

Can I borrow fifty bucks, man 

Just to get me through the day 

You promised you were free this time 

Of all of your old chains 

Well, I bought your story last time 

But I can't afford to buy today 

I think, I see the drummers now 

They're coming down the road 

And they're striking up a funeral beat 

They heard you're getting old 

Well, I know you, you ain't fought 'em 

You let 'em play the song 

Then you fell in step when they asked you 

If you wanted to come along 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

Spinnin' out a house of make-believe 

We're like a serpent on the ear of Eve 

Serpent on the ear of Eve 

Well, brother if you mean to tell the truth 

You better improve your diction 

'Cause the words that you been letting slide 

Are definitely fiction 

Oh, but now I'm lookin' for a place 

To lay my sorrows down 

And I found out where to lay your lies 

Up on that dying ground 

God, knows what your debt has cost 

It's already been paid 

On a Roman cross, a screaming man 

And a cave where He was laid 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

Spinnin' out a house of make-believe 

We're like a serpent on the ear of Eve 

Serpent on the ear of Eve 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

Spinnin' out a house of make-believe 

We're like a serpent on the ear of Eve 

Oh, what a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

Spinnin' out a house of make-believe 

We're like a serpent on the ear of Eve 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

Spinnin' out a house of make-believe 

We're like a serpent on the ear of Eve 

Serpent on the ear of Eve 

Serpent on the ear of Eve 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive 

What a wicked web we weave 

When first we practice to deceive
