It's A Wonderful Lie |
| Get up from a dream |
| and I look for rain |
| Take an amphetamine |
| and a crushed rat’s brain |
| How am I feelin |
| Better I suppose |
| How am I lookin |
| I don’t want the truth |
| What am I doin |
| I ain’t in my youth |
| I’m past my prime |
| Or was that just a pose |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by on those |
| I’ve been accused of never opening up You get too close |
| Then I keep my mouth shut |
| I’m gonna run to the wind |
| Where the big bad city blows |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by on those |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by on those |
| You can dress to the eights |
| You can dress to maim |
| It’ll make you feel great |
| This fortune and fame |
| Wearing too much makeup |
| Not near enough clothes |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by on those |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by on those |
| So don’t pin your hopes |
| Or pin your dreams |
| To misanthropes or guys like me The truth is overrated |
| I suppose |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by on those |
| It a wonderful lie |
| and I still get by… |
