Lies

(albüm: This Time We Mean It - 1975)

You can try if you want to
It doesn't really matter to me
You can talk till you turn blue
Things are gonna be as they be

What you're really trying to say
That you'd lie to get your way
Better run and hide
Truth is on my side today

What do you think you're doing?
Stepping on somebody's ground
What you bite, I hope you're chewing
Though I don't mean to put you down

What you're really gonna do
Gonna ruin things for you
Well, it won't be long
Things start going wrong
And I told you

Why, oh why, do you keep telling lies?
Each one you tell, a part of you dies
I can tell by the look in your eyes
You don't hear me, you just keep telling lies

What do you think you're doing?
Stepping on somebody's ground
What you bite, I hope you're chewing
Though I don't mean to put you down

What you're really trying to say
That you'd lie to get your way
Better run and hide
Truth is on my side today

Why, oh why, do you keep telling lies?
Each one you tell, a part of you dies
I can tell by the look in your eyes
You don't hear me, you just keep telling lies

Keep telling
You tell lies
You keep on
Telling lies
Why, oh why
Do you
Tell lies
Don't tell lies
