Intro:
Well little girl you can roll your eyes at the very sight of me
Do everything in spite of me
But baby dont you lie to me
Ill take your mood swings
Ill dig a hole in your dishonesty
I will kneel down in your company
But baby dont you lie to me
Ill be your red-cheeked lover
And your man of regret
Therell be no desert too dry and no ocean too wet
Ill be your punchbag substitute
Ill sharpen your claws
When you come tumbling down youre still in my thoughts
Well theres just one thing baby I could never abide
No matter how much you beg no matter how hard you try
You can tell me that Ill never be free
But baby dont you lie to me
Well little sister I can handle the thought of you despising me
Dancin on my grave and baptising me
As long as baby you dont lie to me
Ill bend until you have broken my will
Ill be no enemy
Youll never hear so much as a complaint from me
As long as baby you dont lie to me
Well you can take my house
Dont take my pride
Take all my valentines cards and tear them open wide
Chase my friends, ruin my name
I wont ever fight back Ill be easy to blame
Well theres just one thing baby I will always despise
Not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one reasonable plea
Baby dont you lie to me
Burn my house, throw me out, pull me down, sell my clothes
Ill dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows
Ill be anything you need me to be
Baby dont you lie to me
Every time your lips move baby
Someone somewheres bound to cry
I dont even think youre quite aware of how or why
Life for you could be so easy
If youd only shut your mouth
Every time you feel those words come
Runnin out, runnin out, runnin out
Runnin out, runnin out, runnin out
Runnin out, runnin out, runnin out
Runnin out, runnin out, runnin out
Ahhhhh
Well theres just one thing baby I could never abide
No matter how much you beg no matter how hard you try
You can tell me that Ill never be free
But baby dont you lie to me
Drag my name and reputation over the cold hard stones
Break my heart up into pieces honey
Shatter my bones
You can kill me with your repartee,
Baby dont you lie to me
Well theres just one thing baby I will always despise
Not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one reasonable plea
Baby dont you lie to me
Burn my house, throw me out, pull me down, sell my clothes (Oh Yeah!)
Ill dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows
Ill be anything you need me to be
Baby dont you lie to me
