You told me you loved me
So I don't understand,
Why promises are snapped in two,
And words are made to bend
(The bigger, the better)
Some stolen from Japan
Collected from around the world,
They'll catch you if they can

Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah

Do I have to catch you out,
To know what's on your mind
Well, Cleopatra died for Egypt,
What a waste of time
The white ones and red ones,
And some you can't disguise
Twisted truth and half the news,
Can't hide it in your eyes

Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Oh, you know I know

You say you'll try harder,
But I think it's just too late
Well, the car is revving in the drive,
And I'm not the sort to wait
(The bigger, the better)
Some nicked from old Saigon
Collected from around the world
Love lies on and an and on and on and on and

Lies, lies, lies, yeah(They're gonna get you)
Lies, lies, lies, yeah(They won't forget you)
Lies, lies, lies, yeah(They're gonna get you)
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Oh, you know I know

Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Oh, you know I know

Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah
Lies, lies, lies, yeah

    What's happening to this website? These aren't the same lyrics that used to be here. And they're all wrong! This is a completely different song than the one recorded by the Thompson twins.
