Samfire - Mr X

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1913015
I’m an actor and musician
Mmmn
I’m an artist with ambition
Mmmn
Talk myself up to disguise that
I am dead behind my eyes
It’s with me culture dies

I’ve an ego and a silver tongue
Mmmn
High cheekbones and black obsidian lungs
Mmmn
I live easy unrestricted
All I suffer’s self-inflicted
Can’t take when I lose so I play the victim

And I got a bible next to my bed
It sits next my mug shot
The two most precious things I possess

I’ll act like anyone to get what I want
I just need you to fall in love
Tell you how my life’s gone wrong
You could help me out if you give mе all that you got
Make me a success that’s what I еxpect
That you’ll come to me ‘cause I was born blessed
I’m Mr X
So they call me Mr X
Mmmn
I’m charismatic and famously good in bed
Mmmn
Got no interest if you’re nameless
Just invest if you’ll make me famous
Turn myself on
God I’m so flirtatious

Got so many exes and so many more to come
I’ll tell you I love you and then I’m gone

You spent twelve nights in the clutches of a con man
Left him in the morning
But words of love are leeches yeah they’re good at clinging on
Burn them off
Burn him off

‘Cause he’ll act like anyone to get what he wants
He just needs you to fall in love
Tells you how his life’s gone wrong
You could help him out if you give him all that you got
Don’t make him a success that’s what he expects
That you’ll come to him but he’s not that blessed
‘Cause he’s Mr X

He said I smiled too much Couldn’t take me serious Bet I flew there with a trust fund Not like I’d done the work I’d done Thought I was going to Coachella Like he knew
