cn indiscretion brushed away with “cll kidding aside,” 
I caught the slip and knew you could be turned.
cnd who attends a gala if her wish is to hide?
I ran it by the boss, and he said sure.

We set a crew upon it, and they cleared for me a path.
The new hire found your boyfriend was untrue. 
Your lover gone, they laid their snares and rummaged through your past.
They looked for dirt, but then grew fond of you.

It's been so long, and I recall
Those moments on the jogging path with you.
You'd pass me the drive, your hand meeting mine.
Will you leave another chalk mark on the wall?

No sins to hide, too rich to bribe, resistance from the crew—
So we tried a chance encounter near the zoo.

[instrumental break]

We met for lunch, I let you talk, I logged your discontent,
Teased out the emptiness we helped supply.
cnd soon another outrage from those thugs you represent
Told us the time to land you had arrived.

We made the pitch, you listened with a tear but no surprise,
I saw a look of sadness, not disgust.
You knew that our deceit was through, but you'd be living lies
With just a piece of chalk to keep in touch.

It's been so long, and I recall
Those moments on the jogging path with you.
You'd pass me the drive, your hand meeting mine.
Will you leave another chalk mark on the wall?

Have you been made, or were we played? I pass the corner shop each day,
Still looking for that chalk mark on the wall.
