lyrics

Liar, Liar

In this old world that we’re living in
To lie no longer is a sin
You lie out loud and you lie out clear
Just make sure everybody hears

Barefaced lying you can tell
With advertising sells oh so well
Market place got no borderline
It’s open season for barefaced lying

Liar, liar
Pants on fire
Keep on lying to get higher
Liar, liar
Getting higher
Flames are racing up the pyre

Give that old, honest truth a miss
Swap it for a dark angel’s kiss
It’s a luxury that you can afford
Just leave Hail Marys at the door

See you run up against the wall
With your pocket watch and all
Scent of sin upon the tracks
As the lied-to turn on your back

Liar, liar
Pants on fire
Keep on lying to get higher
Liar, liar
Getting higher
Flames are racing up the pyre
