Lyrics TS Hartley - Checkmate

Checkmate

You got a slimy smile
You’re just a word away
You’re like a crocodile
This is your favorite game

You’re not a face in the crowd
You’re just so cool that it aches
But I blend in with style
So checkmate

Chorus
So here it is again
A case of friendly hate
It will come back in the end so checkmate
So here it is again
A case of friendly hate
Checkmate my friend, checkmate

You’re wearing liar’s pants
They’re burning up from the floor
But you can fire dance
I’m sure I’ve seen this dance before

You always leave before its old
Always arrive a little late
Always be a little cold
Always singing checkmate

Chorus

All the places are set
You better place your bets
This is a battle, this is war
We’re dancing cheek to cheek
With gritted teeth

Chorus
