This is a tune about a music biz scam artist, whom I had the 'pleasure' of working with.

Sneaky Jake looks you in the eye with a smile
And says, "Shall we discuss your situation a while?".
Just go ahead and fill me in on all the details
Stick with me, you can't go wrong, and we'll go all the way

They call him Sneaky Jake
Watch out for that snake
Hey, Sneaky Jake
He's the original fake

He waters down reality, and sells it for truth
And hides his true intentions all behind a veil of cool
Keeps his alibis in a box on the shelf
And lies so much, I think that he believes 'em himself

Always stays in character, he plays it to a "t"
Always on the lookout for a new way to deceive
You never know just what he's hidin' up his sleeve
But shine a spotlight down his pants
And watch him do his little dance
