Cheap Reward Lyrics

Feel so loose tonight, I might fall to pieces
Be prepared to sweep me out the door
Now I might be horizontal by time the music ceases
Yes, I get acquainted with the floor
Well, I been trying to get away from things I always do
Hello, floorboard, once again and how are you

Lip service, that's all you'll ever get from me
How could you believe I'd take you seriously
Your cheap reward, your blackmail, your comical rage
Just remember, you'll only be the boss as long as you pay my wage


Lip service, that's all you'll ever get from me
How could you believe I'd take you seriously
Your cheap reward, your blackmail, your comical rage
Just remember, you'll only be the boss as long as you pay my wage

All the signs point on this road, they point one way
Don't act like you're above me, just look at your shoes
Now I'll turn the light out, 'cause there's nothing to see
It's all been lost before, so there's nothing to lose
Oh, but you could say that you love me so painlessly
I woulda done the same for you, but you said to me


Lip service, that's all you'll ever get from me
How could you believe I'd take you seriously
Your cheap reward, your blackmail, your comical rage
Just remember, you'll only be the boss as long as you pay my wage

The Devil Makes Three is an Americana band from Santa Cruz, California, United States. The group blends bluegrass, old time, country, folk, blues, jazz, and ragtime music. The group's members are guitarist Pete Bernhard, upright bassist Lucia Turino, and guitarist and tenor banjo player Cooper McBean.

“The rhythm is what our band is about." Says Pete Bernhard: Guitarist, Front Man. The Devil Makes Three are quite possibly the best band that you have never heard of. They have been constantly on tour, selling out dates across the country and in their neck of the woods on the West Coast drawing near capacity crowds nightly. This is all word of mouth. Over the years, the Devil Makes Three have garnered fans the old school way, playing a city, making friends, conquering fans and moving on.

Laced with elements of ragtime, blues, country, folk and rockabilly, the critically praised, drummer-less trio - consisting of Vermont native, guitarist/front man Pete Bernhard, stand-up bassist Lucia Turino and guitarist Cooper McBean, also of rural Vermont - brings forth a genuine approach to acoustic music. The sound is deeply steeped in rhythm and alive with three part harmonies, while keeping a slightly punk aesthetic to their music and especially their live shows.

Note: the following songs belong to a different band with the same name, a small local metal band from Northern Ireland:
