Lies (Original Demo) (Remaster) Songtext
von Alphaville

Baby, what do I do?
Playing my tune for you
Just to get you in the mood
Everybody′s going to Hollywood
You're driving me mad
But I′m smiling to the crowd instead
A lot of money is at stake, this is a hit and that's a fake

This is what you mean to me
This is what they all should see
Make a make-up in a foolish style
Telling the truth by making a big lie

When I come, I come, but nothing's at ease
Breaking-up the whole is a modern disease
Maybe you think tomorrow′s just a joke
It′s a joke after joke, after joke, after joke


Well, my love, everything's an interview
And nothing′s really new
And everybody's looking for clues, and you know what to do with a clue
Well, my love, get ready for the show
They′re waiting and they will never go, oh
This night is just a go, and it's only for show

Dig that deal and be a millionaire
Drinking cocktails in the stratosphere
Getting jet-lagged with my business friends
In these supersonic wonderlands

There′s a shadow on the graphic display
First, he's smiling, then he's fading away
Maybe he thinks tomorrow′s just a joke
It′s a joke after joke, after joke, after joke

Well, my love, everything's an interview
And nothing′s really new
And everybody's looking for clues, and you know what to do with a clue
My love, get ready for the show
They′re waiting and they will never go, oh-oh
This night is just a go, and it's only for show


My love, everything′s an interview
And nothing's really new
And everybody's looking for clues, and you know what to do with a clue
My love, get ready for the show
They′re waiting and they will never go, oh-oh
This night is just a go, so, and it′s only for show (oh-oh, oh-oh)

And it's only for show (oh, oh-oh)
And it′s only for show (oh-oh, oh-oh!)
