I Might Be Lying Songtext
von Eddie & the Hot Rods

So you're happy with your new position
You said it was your ambition
You got yourself a brand new lifestyle
Gonna keep you happy for a little while
Must make you feel very amused
To see me standing here in plastic shoes
With my face against your window pane
All my faith in you going down the drain

I wonder why you had to change your name
I wonder really are you still the same
When I see you from time to time
When I say I'm fine you know I might be lying


I see you waiting calmly in the hall
Your new sugar daddy's gonna call
He takes you for a ride down the Strand
And he buys you anything you demand
Air conditioned penthouse flat
Diamond rings and a brand new hat
You got what you wanted so bad
Front cover on the girlie mags

I wonder why you had to change your name
I wonder really are you still the same
When I see you from time to time
When I say I'm fine you know I might be lying

I see you driving in your limousine
With your purple tinted window screen
Well, maybe you just can't remember
All the people you once befriended
I guess it's hard for you to face the fact
That there'll never be a welcome back
So carry on playing it cool
While I carry on playing the fool

I wonder why you had to change your name
I wonder really are you still the same
When I see you from time to time
When I say I'm fine you know I might be lying.
