Lyrics Pretty Lies - The Dudes

Pretty Lies

I know that love isn’t all that we need, but yes she is a fine thing
I’m not as handsome a lover as others, but somehow she finds me
My heart is pulsing and bloody, she beats for nobody specifically
Your love is muddy and jaded, been played in fifty ways, deliver me
Tell me your pretty lies (I could tell you mine, I could tell you mine,
I could tell you lines)
Tell me your pretty lies (tell me what I want, what I really want
What I want to hear)
It could be white like the snow is, or dark like I know is a lover’s heart
Whats been made a fool of, but ain’t it the fool that gets all of the lover’s
parts?
It’s getting hard to remember the lies from December
You promised then
We needed lovin' so badly, we pretended that we had it when
You told me your pretty lies (I could tell you mine, I could tell you mine,
I could tell you lines)
Sell me your pretty lies (tell me what I want, what I really want)
Wide awake, a long time coming
We lie and wait, a long time coming
We’re wide awake, a long time coming
We lie and wait, a long time coming
We’re wide awake, a long time coming
We lie and wait a long time coming
It’s a long time coming
Whoever believes that lovin' is free hasn’t ever slept with me
The birds and bees are our disease, contracted collectively
And we’re reborn in the morning with no or little warning
Lover please don’t fall in love with me
But if you think you might, it’s alright, I wouldn’t mind
I heard this story from a couple friends of mine
That you believe yourself, the very lies you tell
But don’t I love it when you’re spinning them
I start in grinning when I see you look up to the left
Tell me you want me like the oxygen in every breath
Say that I’m needed like the landlord on the 30th
I don’t believe you, but it’s still nice
Your eyes tell mine such pretty lies
Tell me your pretty lies (I could tell you mine, I could tell you mine,
I can tell you lines)
Well flash me those pretty eyes (tell me what I want, what I really want,
what I want to hear)
Your lies, lies, lies, lies, lies
