Tell You The Truth, But You Know I'm a Liar

from Shame on the Sun by Pascal Dennis

/

lyrics

Verse (A1): I’d tell you the truth, but you know I’m a liar
I’d give you the moon, but you want higher
Well, I’m an easy-peasy man, except when I’m not
I got chocolate gelato, but you want apricot

Verse (A2): I was up against the wall, my situation dire
You sauntered by, said, “Boys, hold your fire.”
I’m an okey-dokey man, but sometimes I screw up
You took a drag on my cigarette & said,
“Ain’t it time you grew up?”

Chorus (B): You said, “You’re my Romeo, but that ain’t enough.
I want you with me when the going gets rough.
Will you dance with me up on the high wire?
Aren’t you tired of being such a liar?”

Verse (A3): I’m a bird with a French fry, a dog with a bone
I’m happy with you, and I was happy on my own
Now I’m your easy-peasy man, I’d crawl through barbed wire
Let’s have a big family and spread like wildfire.

Chorus (B2): You make me grin, you’re my amplifier.
When you wear that dress, you are a five-alarm fire.
You lift me up like St. Elmo’s fire
I’ll dance with you, woman, on the live wire.
Truth is, I’m tired of being such a liar.
