The candyman's complaining he can't get the blood off his hands He can't tell the difference between friends and powder fans Hooked on what they're given, so they just won't go away Gave them his umbrella, took it back on a rainy day Char De Ville's complaining, 'bout the things we shrug away Realised it matters, when your heart gets stolen away Not the things he didn't do, the things he didn't say Hanging on that look he gave her, stay in touch now Each of them complaining about the situation That they both know oh so well Now each of them complaining 'bout his chosen vocation But I'm not dealing with scum like you And it's just a case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Just another case of tragic magic The dealer remembers more than the man And not alot of people have the problems that they do Off load all your troubles they'll come running back to you This life is a puddle but the goodness does occur So steal another shaving of the sultan's cook Keep on complaining, move in to the sadness lane Come around and sing with me Make everyone ecstatic using the chromatic scale That no-one sings round here And it's just a case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Just another case of tragic magic Remember you're no more than the man The dealer remembers more than the man More than the man And you know I'd ask you, but I already know the answer You'll say "No" and call me a chancer And you know I'd ask you, but I know what you'll say You don't take no prisoners with scum like me And it's just a case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Just another case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Oh it's just a case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Just another case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Just another case of tragic magic When you can't remember feeling fantastic Just another case of tragic magic The dealer remembers more than the man Remember you're no more than the man No more than the man With the tragic magic You'll never feel fantastic
