Intro verse 1 You can while away your hours, you can talk in tongues Throw you promises, baby, until kingdom come Cast your bread upon the waters, see what it may bring You know desperate men, they'll do desperate things verse 2 Come on over here, baby, talk big and be brave It's not your only reputation that you're trying to save I've had you under observation, you're into various pain Desperate men do desperate things Bridge Come on out of your daydream, go some other place Wipe the tear from your eyes, oh, wipe the smile from your pretty little face Before you lose another lover to the night and to the rain 'Cause desperate men do desperate things Instrumental intro repeat x2 verse 3 Go on, Let it out, baby, stir it up and mix it in Two parts religion, 'bout three parts sin It's the truth or consequences. You know the new king reigns Desperate men do desperate things verse 4 You can while away your hours, you can talk in tongues Throw you promises, baby, until kingdom come Cast your bread upon the water, see what it may bring Desperate men, do desperate things Ah, Desperate men, do desperate things Desperate men, do desperate things Intro as outtro
