One False Move - Kingmaker

I wooed her with a four letter word after trying too hard to be deep

I promised her uncountable things that were impossible to keep

Everywhere I seem to turn I’m letting someone down

Either my friends, my enemies, their wives or the crown

Slow

I’m getting slow

Did I make one false move that made her go?

What made her go?

Did I make one false move too soon?

She was blessed with second sight but didn’t have a licence

«She never loved me illegally» I said in her defence

«I can see the future judge!» She said in tears

«Well I can see yours», he said, «you'll be in jail for the next ten years»

Slow

I’m getting slow

Did I make one false move that made her go?

What made her go?

Did I make one false move too soon?

We settled things with a golden handshake

The law decreet it was best

She was crying when she gave me five grand

I said, «And the rest!»

Slow

I’m getting slow

Did I make one false move that made her go?

Where did she go?

Did I make one false move too soon?

Slow

I’m getting slow

Did I make one false move that made her go?

What made her go?

Did I make one false move too soon?
