The Lyrics
You smile and then you lie
They may believe you, they may buy
It will be a while before they know you've screwed them
When they finally learn you've let them down
You'll be runnin' your scam in another town
It's good to screw the Green Green folks of home.
Yes they're all there to greet you
When the cops debark you
From the plane
And they no longer care about the money:
When they angrily surround you - Look!
There's mom with an ax
And daddy with a pitchfork
Smile and wink at the Green Green folks of home.
The bumpkins all believe you
'Til you leave them high and dry
It is their sympathy and greed you've learned to play on.
Lord it's fun to run such hopeless jerks
With an age-old scheme that never works
It's neat to cheat the Green Green folks of home.
Yes they're all there to greet you
When the cops debark you
From the plane
And they no longer care about the money:
When they angrily surround you - Look!
There's mom with an ax
And daddy with a pitchfork
Smile and wink at the Green Green folks of home.
They may believe you, they may buy
It will be a while before they know you've screwed them
When they finally learn you've let them down
You'll be runnin' your scam in another town
It's good to screw the Green Green folks of home.
Yes they're all there to greet you
When the cops debark you
From the plane
And they no longer care about the money:
When they angrily surround you - Look!
There's mom with an ax
And daddy with a pitchfork
Smile and wink at the Green Green folks of home.
The bumpkins all believe you
'Til you leave them high and dry
It is their sympathy and greed you've learned to play on.
Lord it's fun to run such hopeless jerks
With an age-old scheme that never works
It's neat to cheat the Green Green folks of home.
Yes they're all there to greet you
When the cops debark you
From the plane
And they no longer care about the money:
When they angrily surround you - Look!
There's mom with an ax
And daddy with a pitchfork
Smile and wink at the Green Green folks of home.
