The hand is quicker than the eye
|
And sometimes the truth ain't no better than the lie
|
|
I'm gon' tell you a story about how things changed and why
|
One day you owe tax for the world and the next day you owe the grey
|
I was the one that all of the ladies wanted to see
|
And now words upon no the fellas wanted to be
|
(The bigger they come then the harder they fall when they're falling down)
|
(The bigger they come then the harder they fall when they're falling down)
|
|
The hand is quicker than the eye
|
And sometimes the truth ain't no better than the lie
|
|
But the hand is quicker than the eye
|
Sometimes the truth ain't no better than the lie
|
|
Are you waiting for something better
|
You face up and gonna come your way
|
You never was gonna stick around
|
You never meant to stay
|
I see you looking and keep on staring at the front door
|
But I hope you found what you're looking for
|
(The bigger they come then the harder they fall when they're falling down)
|
(The bigger they come then the harder they fall when they're falling down)
|
|
The hand is quicker than the eye
|
The truth ain't no better than the lie
|
|
I thought you were my lover
|
I thought you were my friend
|
How dare you find a lover
|
Now I'm alone again
|
You used to call me sweetheart
|
You used to hold my head
|
You'll get what's coming to you
|
I'll get my sweet revenge
|
Sometimes you'll find the situation in exactly what is meant to be
|
You can't always believe in what you hear and everything that you see
|
Keep you dear friends and your enemies even closer
|
Because not everything is gonna turn how you make it is supposed to
|
|
The hand is quicker than the eye
|
The truth ain't no better than the lie
|
