Setting Me Up Lyrics - Mark Knopfler

You say i'm the greatest bound for glory 

well the word is out and i learned 

i got the latest side of the story 

you're pulling out before you get burned 

Well your hands are squeezing me down to the bone 

i never saw you breaking no law 

stands to reason i've got to leave you alone 

what you taking me for 

You're setting me up to put me down 

you're making me out to be your clown 

you're just setting me up to put me down 

you better give it up 

quit your messing around 

You think i care about your reaction 

you think i don't understand 

all you wanted was a piece of the action 

now you talk about another man
