The public adores you Man about town Seems that your love life Is bringing you down Early in the morning As quickly you drive You're all caught up In a network of lies [Alternative first verse from ‘demo' version:] There's a cop on the corner And he tells what he saw To a judge and jury Who live by the law And he counsels the witness And they sit there on high But they're all caught up In a network of lies Sweet Cinderella They'll work you to d**h
They want let you leave them You life's a mess They'll tell you they love you Just look in their eyes You're all caught up In a network of lies [Chorus:] Madhouse It's a madhouse Madhouse Yes you're all caught up In a network of lies Yes business as usual And there's people for sale They'll buy and they'll sell you They'll fight tooth and nail Cause business is business There's always the cry You're all caught up In a network of lies [Chorus]
