I’ll dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows I’ll be anything you need me to be Baby don’t you lie to me
Well you’ve been scratching around in the basement
Looking for somewhere to hide
Making your own entertainment
Trying hard to salvage some pride
Well you’re the last of the original orphans
And baby you’re a wonderful friend
I love the way you say I’m forgiven
And that I don’t have to pretend
I’m no squeeze
Well I’m no Monday’s child
Tell me please
Half a made up story
Of syncopated glory
Of when you and the kid ran wild
And I know your kind
You’ve got a dirty mind
You think that half the world’s gone blind
Well don’t ya
And I can’t get on
While you should be just good as gone
When everything you say sounds wrong
Oh yes it does
Oh baby why don’t ya
Well you say you only want to amuse me
Just flash me that toothless smile
You tie me up in words that confuse me
And terrorize me all the while
Aw you’re so twee
And you’re so very dim
Every time we meet
You tell me of the time
When you wish that you was mine
And now it hurts you when you try to begin
And I know your kind
You’ve got a filthy mind
You think that half the world’s gone blind
Well don’t ya
And I can’t get on
While you should be just good as gone
When everything you say sounds wrong
Oh yes it does
Oh baby why don’t ya
Oh baby why don’t ya
Oh
I know your kind
You’ve got a filthy mind
You think that half the world’s gone blind
Don’t ya
And I can’t get on
While you should be just good as gone
When everything you say sounds wrong
Oh yes it does
Oh baby why don’t ya
Oh baby why don’t ya
Oh baby why don’t ya
Oh baby why don’t ya
Turn off the light when you leave
Switch off that evil sound
I’m trying hard not to breathe
Till I’m on solid ground
Sometimes that’s just how it goes
Take it from someone who knows
Eyes wide, tongue tied
She replied, «I'm lost inside»
I’m not your miracle man
I’m not your spirit guide
Before this whole thing began
I had some sense of pride
Just one more night with your lips
Your company is hard to eclipse
Weak knees, yes indeed
Guaranteed, make my heart bleed
Give me a reason to breathe
Don’t let my sun go down
I’ll make you sad and receive
I’ll be your sacred ground
Be my Medusa in Chains, petrified
Only your beauty remains
Tell me, baby, one more time
Won’t you be a friend of mine?
Put out your e-cigarette
Take off your sequin shawl
Just try your best to forget
That I once made you crawl
Just one more sway of your hips
I love the way your confidence slips
You should be outlawed, dear God
Every single breath, I applaud
Give me a reason to breathe
Don’t let my sun go down
I’ll make you sad and receive
I’ll be your sacred ground
Be my Medusa in Chains, petrified
Only your beauty remains
Tell me, baby, one more time
Won’t you be a friend of mine?
Well, little girl
You can roll your eyes at the very sight of me
Do everything in spite of me
But, baby, don't you lie to me
I'll take your mood swings
I'll dig a hole in your dishonesty
I will kneel down in your company
But, baby, don't you lie to me
I'll be your red cheek lover
And your man of regret
There'll be no desert too dry and no ocean too wet
I'll be your punchbag substitute
I'll sharpen your claws
When you come tumbling down you're still in my thoughts
There's just one thing, baby, I can never abide
No matter how much you beg
No matter how hard you try
You can tell me that I'll never be free
Baby, don't you lie to me
Well, little sister
I can handle the thought of you despising me
Dancing on my grave and baptizing me
As long as, baby, you don't lie to me
I'll pay my till,
You have broken my will, I'll be no enemy
You'll never hear so much as a complaint from me
As long as, baby, you don't lie to me
Well, you can take my house
Don't take my pride
Take all my valentines cards and tear them open wide
Chase my friends, ruin my name
I won't ever fight back
I'll be easy to blame
Well, there's just one thing, baby, I will always despise
It's not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one reasonable plea
Baby, don't you lie to me
Burn my house, throw me out
Pull me down, sell my clothes
I'll dig you out of a hole
With your ignorant shows
I'll be anything you need me to be
Baby, don't you lie to me
Every time your lips move, baby
Someone, somewhere's bound to cry
I don't even think you're quite aware of how or why
Life for you could be so easy
If you'd only shut your mouth
Every time you feel those words come
Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out
Ahhhhhhh!
There's just one thing, baby, I can never abide
No matter how much you beg
No matter how hard you try
You can tell me that I'll never be free
Baby, don't you lie to me
Drag my reputation all on the courthouse stones
Break my heart up into pieces, honey, shatter my bones
You can kill me with your repartee
Baby, don't you lie to me
Well, there's just one thing, baby, I will always despise
It's not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one reasonable plea
Baby, don't you lie to me
Burn my house, throw me out
Pull me down, sell my clothes,
I'll dig you out of a hole
With your ignorant shows
I'll be anything you need me to be
Baby, don't you lie to me
Well she said I know, but I just can’t tell
Everything that you’ve just been saying
Lucy was there as well in the dark
When the kids in the band were playing
No one can hear a word or tell
What the girl was singing
See, she must’ve been 16 or 18
I’m just past caring
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was busting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
You’re not pleased that you’re easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don’t miss
And she said, I can’t love you any more than this
Ah, she said, she said, no, no, no, no
Oh then again, yes, why don’t you kill me
I said when I’m messed up like this
Sweetheart you know that don’t thrill me
Said I would’ve been there for you if you’d just been a little bit nicer
I was dead by Sunday half dead, scared just trying to please her
She was getting me pills when
I was into her best friend
She was chasing the thrills
And living down at the West End
She was pretty in braces
I lived under of her window
She said, take me to London
Tell me something I don’t know
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don’t miss
And she said, I can’t love you any more than this
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was busting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
You’re not pleased that you’re easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La, la, la, la, and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don’t miss
And she said I don’t like you, you can’t stand me
I can’t love you anymore than this
