The Trick
Chasing the Illusion: Unraveling the Tricks in The Midnight Devils' Anthem
Lyrics
Standing on a corner three hundred miles from home
Feeling far from home while reminiscing about the previous night's events.
The thought of last night just wont leave me alone
Memories of the recent night persist and trouble the person.
We took it to the limit but the limit wouldn't take it
They pushed the boundaries, but the situation couldn't handle it.
Oh baby you know what I mean
Expressing a shared understanding with someone special.
Kansas City shakin' fallin' apart at the seams
Describing chaos and disarray in Kansas City.
It's the trick, it's the trick, it's the trick
Repetition emphasizing the significance of "the trick."
It's the trick that keeps on giving
Highlighting the continuous nature of the impact of "the trick."
It's the trick, it's the trick, it's the trick
Reiteration of the importance of "the trick."
It's the trick that keeps on giving
Emphasizing the ongoing impact of "the trick."
We're going off the rails but those wheels they keep on spinnin'
Despite deviating from a normal path, things keep moving forward.
It's the trick that keeps on giving
Emphasizing the enduring influence of "the trick."
Well we crossed a few lines but then that's nothing new
Admitting to crossing boundaries but suggesting it's not uncommon for them.
She's hazy in her ways sweet lovin' in the afternoon
Describing a partner's elusive nature with affectionate moments in the daytime.
Pretty rock n roll baby lead singer of the band oh yeah
Praising a charming rock 'n' roll partner who's the lead singer.
Here's a little for ya until we meet again.
Leaving a small token until the next meeting.
And it aint over till it's over, till it's over
Asserting that things will persist until their conclusion.
And we aint foolin' no one, foolin' no one
Stating that they're not deceiving anyone.
Call me up on the phone just to let it ring
Symbolizing longing or anticipation with a ringing phone call.
Never bet it all on a sure thing
Advising against risking everything on an assured outcome.
