Lies Lyrics

von Thompson Twins

You told me you loved me, so I don't understand,
Why promises are snapped in two, and words are made to bend.
The bigger, the better, some stolen from Japan.
Collected from around the world, they'll catch you if they can.

(Chorus)
Lies, lies, lies, yeah!
Lies, lies, lies, yeah!
Lies, lies, lies, yeah!
Lies, lies, lies, yeah!

Do I have to catch you out, to know what's on your mind?
Well Cleopatra died for Egypt, what a waste of time.
The white ones and red ones, and some you can't disguise.
Twisted truth and half the news, can't hide it in your eyes.

(Repeat Chorus)

You say you'll try harder, but I think it's just too late.
Well, the car is revving in the drive, and I'm not the sort to wait.
The bigger, the better, some nicked from old Saigon.
Collected from around the world, love lies on and on and on and on and on.

(Repeat Chorus)

They're gonna get you, they won't forget you, they're gonna get you,

(Repeat Chorus)
