I bet you thought you were a real operator
But I don't know why
All you had was a bankroll, babe
And a glint in your eye

I'm a-high-stepping like an Indian brave
I'm the one
Dancing on your grave

You know I'm a killer, babe
Here's late news for you
You couldn't buy me with a million, babe
Cause I'm too good for you

I know you think I'm a real rough trade
Now I'm the one
Dancing on your grave

One time you were a real high-stepper
On the high trapeze
But you know you ran out of money
Wound up on your knees

I'm the one you never made
Now I'm the one
Dancing on your grave
I'm the one
