Half The Truth Lyrics
Girl and boy
Everythin' in full swing
Heads or tails
Doesn’t make a difference
Beneath the glamour
There was always gonna be
Amateur dramatics
Alot of bad behavior
I would see (I is said like ah?)
Glasses on the table
One, two, three
Only you and me
Wearing nothin’
In the lap of luxury
Sip it slowly
Not a leg to stand on
Take my money
Twist our paper
Leave the table
Bad behaviour
I got my spies
Swift to every consultlate
Be my eyes
Tell me what i never see
Cos a ghost
Dont fear a lover
Nothin’ teath blank ah
Get ready for the credit clubber
Secret moore
Gettin’ it together
With a big fat bowl
Of alphabet spaghetti
Watch the birdie
Lookin’ through the mirror
Polly wanna cracker
Thats not what i heard
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I wil not lie to you ooo ooo
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I wil not lie to you ooo ooo
Ahhh
Ahhhh
Gentlemen
Turn off your recorders
I can hear them buzzin’
From inside of you’re tracksuits
Got to get
To California
Where this woman is
Threatening to sue me
Get right back
Back to the beginning
Where we start off single
And everythin' in full swing
Everyone
Around you wearing big gold hatscome on
Playin the piano now
Rapping
Listen... I wont lie
So baby dont cry
The way I'm feeling right now
I'm feeling so high
I cant tell you the truth
Baby you know why
Cause everybody talks about me
I'm a known guy
I'll tell you half the truth
At least I told you half
For all the rest of it
I'll tell you if you only ask
Cause I'm a gold digga
And I should know better
Everythin' in full swing
Heads or tails
Doesn’t make a difference
There was always gonna be
Amateur dramatics
Alot of bad behavior
Glasses on the table
One, two, three
Only you and me
In the lap of luxury
Sip it slowly
Not a leg to stand on
Twist our paper
Bad behaviour
Swift to every consultlate
Be my eyes
Tell me what i never see
Dont fear a lover
Nothin’ teath blank ah
Get ready for the credit clubber
Gettin’ it together
With a big fat bowl
Of alphabet spaghetti
Lookin’ through the mirror
Polly wanna cracker
Thats not what i heard
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I wil not lie to you ooo ooo
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I wil not lie to you ooo ooo
Ahhhh
Turn off your recorders
I can hear them buzzin’
From inside of you’re tracksuits
To California
Where this woman is
Threatening to sue me
Back to the beginning
Where we start off single
And everythin' in full swing
Around you wearing big gold hatscome on
Playin the piano now
So baby dont cry
The way I'm feeling right now
I'm feeling so high
I cant tell you the truth
Baby you know why
Cause everybody talks about me
I'm a known guy
I'll tell you half the truth
At least I told you half
For all the rest of it
I'll tell you if you only ask
Cause I'm a gold digga
And I should know better

Wow I'm the first one to add a post =) I think it's about a relationship between "Boy and a Girl" as it's written in the first line. He want's to controll her, has his eyes everywhere. But there is still a lot, that i can't understand like the part with the recorders....
I agree, but the chorus ("I will not lie to you, but I'll definitely only give you half the truth") reminds me of Hermes in Greek mythology. Upon stealing Apollo's sheep when he was born, he was made to promise never to lie again. He replied much the same way.
