Lyrics Lip Service - Michael Franks

Lip Service

Here we are again
That fatal combination
I guess it’s opposite attraction
It’s gone too far again
This crazy conversation
It’s like a nuclear reaction
Lady your lip service has no rival
Don’t you know deception is uncouth?
Didn’t you read somewhere in the Bible
Not to bend the truth?
If you think your lip service will amaze me
You’re utterly confused — that much is clear
'Cause baby your lip service doesn’t faze me
It’s so insincere
It’s only lip service
It’s nothin' but lip service
There you are again
Unable to conceal it
That hourglass configuration
It’s gone too far again
Believe me, I can feel it
I can’t resist that old temptation
Lady your lip service can be vicious
Don’t you know deception is uncouth?
However your lips look so delicious
While they bend the truth
Give me some lip service, just attack me
I know I have asked you to be real
But sometimes your lip service is exactly
What I want to feel
Tired of of truces
Eloquence is useless
Eighty-six it
'Cause all this talk won’t fix it
