leo sayer - everybody lies lyrics

Loading...

well they say that every dog must have its day
and to h+ll with anyone who’s in the way
and they’ll say that all your proof
is just a fraction of the truth
‘cos everybody lies

they’ll tell you pride will come before a fall
and no wall can survive the wrecking ball
but like the twisting of a knife
no lie will save your life
when everything’s a case of do or die

lie, lie, lie
everybody lies, lies, lies
underneath us earth is shaking
from the mess that we’re creating
oh it’s all a pack of lies

we bring back empty buckets from the well
spray perfume on the most disgusting smell
split the colours and the classes
spread this bullsh+t to the masses
’til reality is just an empty sh+ll

and don’t get me started on the greed
people buying all the things that they don’t need
pet rocks and great big yachts
it’s the gots and they ain’t gots
kissing all of common sense goodbye
one day we’ll meet our maker and he’ll say
you only told the truth by inches every day
oh but god it proved so hard
so i embellished by a yard
everybody does it by the way

and god will strike us down we’ll go to h+ll
but down there we’ll all get on so very well
‘cos we’ll be sharing porky pies
with the very bestest liars
while we roast away upon the funeral pyre

oh lies, lies, lies
everybody lies, lies, lies
underneath us earth is shaking
it’s foundations we’ve been faking

as we create another stinker
to placate a penny pincher
falling in hook, line, and sinker
shouting ‘hey, look i’m a winner!’
if i deny, deny, deny, deny, deny
