Lie to Me Songtext
von David Byrne

It′s a beautiful world and a beautiful dream
And you know I don't care if things are not what they seem
Making up stories that you know aren′t true
But you know it's alright 'cause I know it too

Who is the lady with the snow-cone eyes?
Who has the candy with the soft insides?
Talk show religion and soap opera love
Whatever happened to heavens above?

Well, you can lie to me and I imagine you do
If nothing′s right, what′s wrong?
That what I like about you
That what I like about you

Birds are flying from east to west
Dogs are running a political race
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder who you are


Well, you can lie to me and I imagine you do
If nothing's right, what′s wrong?
That's what I like about you
That′s what I like about you

It's a beautiful world and a beautiful dream
And you know I don′t care if things are not what they seem
I wanna be happy, I can't stand the pain
I wanna believe, so tell me again

I'm like a chicken without a head
I′d like to fly, but I walk instead
Emotional junkies, how blind we must be
I′m just a fool for your Las Vegas tears

Well, you can lie to me and I imagine you do
If nothing's right, what′s wrong?
That's what I like about you
That′s what I like about you

That's what I like about you
That′s what I like about you
