[Verse 1: Matt Maltese]
I cannot follow us
Like a persistent worm
That's not a thing that I can do
You are a lake of love
A raging genius
And you don't want the things I do

[Chorus: Matt Maltese]
The first time we met up
Asked you in for coffee
You said, "That's the oldest trick in the book"
And when I think about you, often
I picture you smirking
When I used the oldest trick in the book

[Verse 2: Bedouine]
Cute if not pitiful, so unoriginal
And yet it's how it all begins
If I'm a lake then you
You're a deep diver, and who
Can say if that's enough to win?

[Chorus: Both]
The first time we met up
Asked you in for coffee
You said, "That's the oldest trick in the book"
And when I think about you, often
I picturе you smirking
When I used the oldеst trick in the book
[Instrumental]

The first time we met up
Asked you in for coffee
You said, "That's the oldest trick in the book"
And when I think about you, often
I picture you smirking
When I used the oldest trick in the book
