Don't you believe the words of handsome men (x4)
Don't you believe the words of handsome men
They'll fall like birds, only to rise again
Don't you believe the words of handsome men
They'll boil like oil under your father's skin
Don't you believe the words of handsome men (x4)
Don't you believe the words of handsome men
They'll steer you clear of all that you will fear
Don't you believe the words of handsome men
They'll guide you wide of all your next of kin
Don't you believe the words of handsome men (x4)
Father raged like a soldier
He snapped the back off the kitchen chair
When he said it would've been better if
You'd never crept 'round my back stair
It wasn't nothing I wanted
But I never thought I'd ever regret it
The day you told me there was
More to there than here
Don't you believe the words of handsome men (x5)
Don't you believe (x3)
Don't you believe the words of handsome men
