Baby You Lied

(album: hey Zeus! - 1993)

You got lost in the dark last night
The road was empty
Sitting in your car you saw a black and white
Doing a hundred and twenty
Baby, you lied when you loved me
To you the whole thing was a fake
And now you're stuck out in the wilderness
In the middle of a big mistake
Baby, you lied, I even understand why
I'm looking at a candy bar you left behind
I'll make you be forgiven
Baby, you lied
You smelled like shit this morning
But refused to crawl back home
A black snake never moves backwards
You both will spend your life alone
Baby, you lied when you left me
Another line in your private joke
I hope you had a good time watching
Your life go up in smoke
Baby, you lied, I even understand why
I'm watching a musical monkey unwind
Hoping to be forgiven
Baby, you lied
Your car broke down, you sat for an hour
Chewing on your hand
You fix it yourself, it's not your fault
That the world is so unfair
Baby, you lied on Sunday
Working on the day of rest
The fact that I could lead you
Proves that you're no best
Baby, you lied, I even understand why
Lipstick and Gideon's, runaway signs
Wasted living
Baby, you lied. Uh, baby, you lied. Baby, you lied
