lyrics

Illegitimate
Bunk and counterfeit Inconsiderate
Look over your shoulder Ah

‘Cause every single time another lie Another day goes by
Another alibi just waiting in the pipeline Your word is zip to me
Hip to your bullshit
You got a blackhole mouth and you’re unfit

You’re a fraud You’re a chameleon It’s a facade
Your cover’s come undone You’re just a fraud
Oh, you are an imposter A double-crosser
But everybody knows you’re just a fraud

(It’s gonna eat you)
(It’s gonna eat you)
(From the inside)

Devolved into slime Walking waste of time I’ll expose your crimes Look over your shoulder

All I really want is what is mine You burglarized my time You’re gonna find
Your life of lies will cannibalize

It’s gonna eat you up from the inside

Fraud
You’re a chameleon It’s a facade
Your cover’s come undone
You’re just a fraud
Oh, you are an imposter A double-crosser
But everybody knows you’re just a fraud

Hey you got something of mine
Hey just give it back and we’ll be fine You’ll be fine
We can walk away and leave your Treacherousness behind

You’re a fraud
You’re a chameleon
It’s a façade

You’re a fraud
You’re a chameleon
It’s a facade

Your cover’s come undone You’re just a fraud
Oh, you are an imposter A double-crosser
But everybody knows you’re just a fraud

(It’s gonna eat you)
(It’s gonna eat you)
(From the inside)

Hooked Like Helen Cleveland, Ohio

In a house in the woods about 40 miles west of Cleveland, Hooked Like Helen began as the musical brainstorms of husband-and- wife, Jon and Nikki Stipp.
Hooked Like Helen's sound embodies a unique vein of alternative music; dark lyrical themes of unresolved trauma and existential pondering provide a refreshingly authentic perspective. ... more
