Lyrics
Same Old Lies
© August 8, 2009 Stan Loh
Introduction
Verse 1
She swears by St. Christopher,
The same lies Christ heard,
She’s sayin’, oh I’m beggin’,
Incessant is her bidding,
Her trickery quite unwrapped,
Her same old, same old trap,
All her sad tales … reserved for closure …
Chorus
It’s the same old … same old … lies,
Yes, it’s the same old … same old … lies,
Instrumental
Verse 2
The same smile, same beguile
The cold tears of a crocodile,
She dangles and she tangles,
Her crooked lines get me mangled,
Her lightning bleeds the rain,
And thunder her refrain,
She wins again … I’m the loser …
Chorus
It’s the same old … same old … lies,
Yes, it’s the same old … same old … lies,
Instrumental
Verse 3
The same curse, same regrets,
A fight over cigarettes,
Blame all but the wine,
Better stoned than hear her whine,
Come the morn pools of blood,
Her lifeless frame in the mud,
She wins again … I’m the pris’ner …
Chorus
It’s the same old … same old … lies,
Yes, it’s the same old … same old … lies,
Judge and jury, it’s their duty … same old lies.
Closing Instrumental
