Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie

Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
|
They say that we can't beat the rap
|
Just a couple of rats without a hope and both our heads inside a trap
|
You wash my hands, I'll scratch your back
|
Because we're so dirty and we need to find
|
I said, some kind of kindness
|
|
Maybe there just ain't no use in trying
|
Every one of us is born alone and someday soon we will be dying
|
But don't you ever pay no mind
|
Because when you lie with me I feel that I
|
I feel some kind of kindness
|
You know this is no way for us
|
Ragged and damned at the heel
|
And deep down you know
|
There's gotta be a better life for us
|
Than drifting like dust through an hourglass
|
Waiting for our blood to congeal
|
That's why we're singing...
|
|
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
(Still singing, still singing)
|
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
|
Nobody looks you in the eye
|
Somebody's always got their fingers in somebody else's pie
|
We may be cheap, but we ain't free
|
And we're just fighting for the right to know
|
To know some kind of kindness
|
|
We may be deaf, but we ain't dumb
|
Two more pariahs of the road without a home and on the run
|
We may be damned, but we're not done
|
'Cause the time must surely come when we will find
|
Maybe some kind of kindness
|
Yeah, this is no place for us
|
Stuck like sick monkeys in a zoo
|
Yeah, life is short
|
And there's gotta be a better way for us
|
Than sleeping down under the overpass
|
Dreaming that our dreams have come true
|
That's why we're singing...
|
|
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
(Still singing, still singing)
|
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
(Still singing)
|
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
(Still singing, still singing)
|
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
|
|
etc.
