Paper Lies |
When you look into the mirror |
Do you see a face you hardly recognise |
If you look into the sun too long |
Do the things you see begin to burn your eyes |
Paper lies |
Just to express what he’s thinking |
Must a man take all the mail will bring? |
Are we living only for today |
It’s a sign of the times … we believe anything … and nothing |
Paper lies |
When you kill the truth |
You can make a killing |
You might just make losing look like winning |
You came to tell the people what’s goin' on |
But nobody knows whose side you’re on |
Seems like you’re sailin' pretty close to the wind again |
Paper lies |
You have already won a prize! |
I know something that you don’t know |
Something that you ought to know |
It’s burning a hole in my pocket book |
Listen … do you want to know a secret? |
We can print our own money here |
If you let us do a piece on you |
We can take you to pieces |
When you look into the money do you see a face you hardly recognise? |
When you get behind the news of the world do the things you find begin to bend |
your mind? |
Paper lies |
Why don’t ya let us take a piece outta you? |
