Lies |
| Well, I’m reading this poem |
| And it’s so profound |
| And I like its rhythm |
| And I like its sound |
| It’s by a very famous poet |
| No critic can criticise |
| And then I pause a moment |
| And I start to realize |
| He’s tellin' |
| Lies lies lies |
| On the motel TV |
| I dig the evangelist |
| He’ll tell you all about that |
| And then he tell you all about this |
| He’s preachin' up a storm |
| By the sea of Galilee |
| He’s mixin' up the truth |
| With something funny I start to see |
| He’s tellin' |
| Lies lies lies |
| I never had this problem |
| With nobody in the government |
| I guess I always figured |
| They never mean what they meant |
| And GOD help us all |
| Not to be so stone surprised |
| When we wake up in the stars |
| With the skies in our eyes |
| If we keep tellin' |
| Lies lies lies |
