| Well they say that every dog must have its day
|
| And to hell with anyone who’s in the way
|
| And they’ll say that all your proof
|
| Is just a fraction of the truth
|
| 'Cos everybody lies
|
| They’ll tell you pride will come before a fall
|
| And no wall can survive the wrecking ball
|
| But like the twisting of a knife
|
| No lie will save your life
|
| When everything’s a case of do or die
|
| Lie, lie, lie
|
| Everybody lies, lies, lies
|
| Underneath us Earth is shaking
|
| From the mess that we’re creating
|
| Oh it’s all a pack of lies
|
| We bring back empty buckets from the well
|
| Spray perfume on the most disgusting smell
|
| Split the colours and the classes
|
| Spread this bullshit to the masses
|
| 'Til reality is just an empty shell
|
| And don’t get me started on the greed
|
| People buying all the things that they don’t need
|
| Pet rocks and great big yachts
|
| It’s the gots and they ain’t gots
|
| Kissing all of common sense goodbye
|
| One day we’ll meet our maker and he’ll say
|
| You only told the truth by inches every day
|
| Oh but God it proved so hard
|
| So I embellished by a yard
|
| Everybody does it by the way
|
| And God will strike us down we’ll go to hell
|
| But down there we’ll all get on so very well
|
| 'Cos we’ll be sharing porky pies
|
| With the very bestest liars
|
| While we roast away upon the funeral pyre
|
| Oh lies, lies, lies
|
| Everybody lies, lies, lies
|
| Underneath us Earth is shaking
|
| It’s foundations we’ve been faking
|
| As we create another stinker
|
| To placate a penny pincher
|
| Falling in hook, line, and sinker
|
| Shouting 'Hey, look I’m a winner!'
|
| If I deny, deny, deny, deny, deny |
