You gotta love the lie |
|
You gotta love the lie |
|
Love, life, love, god, girls and lies |
|
I can't hear through those veneers |
|
But you keep speaking with those pearly whites |
|
Love the life that you live if it gives love back |
|
And we gotta stay together for the kids |
|
If you want to disappear don't announce it |
|
Vanish in thin air and bounce, quick |
|
Fix the cowlick, slick your hair back |
|
Ride the rim bare back, you stared at |
|
Lady Godiva might have been an exhibitionist |
|
I'm not here to judge voyeuristic fetishes |
|
If nobody looked, it's a closed book |
|
You could put your hang ups on a coat hook |
|
I'm from a puritanical land where they burn witches |
|
I'm the result of a welfare running up your sickness |
|
Joy never came, |
|
Jesus never helped |
|
We were all to blame, god beat us with a belt |
|
If I heard your name, |
|
I'd retreat into myself |
|
I won't hurt your name, |
|
I'll keep it to myself with |
|
Love, life, love, god, girls and lies |
|
I can't hear through those veneers |
|
But you keep speaking through those pearly whites |
|
No legacy to claim, no enemies to squelch |
|
No chemical imbalance that could remedy itself[Incomprehensible] for the parents medicine is on the shelf |
|
Put the trophy in the spotlight, watch as it melts |
|
Metal wouldn't survive, plastic is cheaper |
|
Ran into the fire, she asked me to leave her |
|
I did what |
|
I could with the wood and the flammables |
|
Stood with the good little animals, ran with the bulls |
|
Soot on my hands that were full |
|
Put the good book on the mantle |
|
Burn, baby, burn, you could serve as a candle |
|
Last thing |
|
I heard was her on the piano |
|
Last thing |
|
I saw was her being herself |
|
By beating herself, to see if it could help |
|
If I heard your name, |
|
I'd retreat into myself |
|
I won't hurt your name, |
|
I'll keep it to myself with |
|
Love, life, love, god, girls and lies |
|
I can't hear through those veneers |
|
But you keep speaking through those pearly whites |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
The killer never came, |
|
Jesus never helped |
|
We were all to blame, god beat us with a belt |
|
If I heard your name, |
|
I'd retreat into myself |
|
I won't hurt your name, |
|
I'll keep it to myself |
|
No legacy to claim, no enemies to squelch |
|
No chemical imbalance that could remedy itself[Incomprehensible] for the parents medicine is on the shelf |
|
Put the trophy in the spotlight, watch as it melts with love |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
|
Love the lie |
