Sugar Army - Hooks For Hands lyrics

I've gotten down with the hounds in this sketchy little town All in the name of financial gain, it's a good thing I'm eager to please If there's a lesson to be learned, I'm dealing with the strange I discovered it's easy to indulge those who like to pretend And take chances When you got hooks for hands The more good fortune that you have When you got hooks for hands The more good fortune that you have When you got hooks for hands The more good fortune that you have That you have So let's just hope my appetite will (?) To have come this far on a whim must be some kind of small miracle A miracle When you got hooks for hands The more good fortune that you have When you got hooks for hands The more good fortune that you have When you got hooks for hands The more good fortune that you have That you have
