Alibis

You told so many lies, your tongue is black with fireflies But you spit them out and pretend you're sneezing And every word is such a joke With so many pasts you'd be ninety years old Don't you wonder why the room keeps on leaving Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say Don't think that I would never need it Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say Don't think that I would ever believe it It's just a thought and nothing more That all your thoughts and moves are taught And memorized each night before your sleeping And every word is such a joke Strung from neon masts flying flags you hope Will win you friends and give your life some meaning Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say Don't think that I would never need it Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say Don't think that I would ever believe it You told so many lies, your tongue is stained with alibis You've been around the world and found it pleasing And every word is such a joke With so many pasts you'd be a hundred years old Don't you wonder why the room keeps on leaving Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say Don't think that I would never need it Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say Don't think that I would ever believe it
