You sit there like a buddha
All chill and zen
You write down what I say
And chime in now and then
Can't tell if you are judging me
'Cause I never see you blinking
But I gotta wonder sometimes
What it is you're really thinking
Ambusher, ambusher
Behind your disguise
Ambusher, ambusher
Caught me by surprise
Thought that I could trust you
But that was a falsehood
You hurt me in the worst way possible
You hurt me 'cause you could
Put all my eggs in your basket
My first and last mistake
You cracked them all wide open
And flattened me like a pancake
Why am I so trusting
Why am I such a goddamn fool
Never trust nothing to no one
A plain and simple rule
I won't make that mistake again
No matter how attractive the proposition
Never trust nothing to no one
That is my firm position
