The Fratellis - Baby Don't You Lie To Me! lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, little girl You can roll your eyes at the very sight of me Do everything in spite of me But, baby, don't you lie to me I'll take your mood swings I'll dig a hole in your dishonesty I will kneel down in your company But, baby, don't you lie to me [Pre-Chorus 1] I'll be your red-cheeked lover And your man of regret There'll be no desert too dry and no ocean too wet I'll be your punchbag substitute I'll sharpen your claws When you come tumbling down you're still in my thoughts [Chorus 1] There's just one thing, baby, I can never abide No matter how much you beg No matter how hard you try You can tell me that I'll never be free Baby, don't you lie to me [Verse 2] Well, little sister I can handle the thought of you despising me Dancing on my grave and baptizing me As long as, baby, you don't lie to me I'll bend until you have broken my will I'll be no enemy You'll never hear so much as a complaint from me As long as, baby, you don't lie to me [Pre-Chorus 2] Well, you can take my house Don't take my pride And count my Valentine's cards And tear them open wide Chase my friends, ruin my name I won't ever fight back, I'll be easy to blame [Chorus 2] Well, there's just one thing, baby, I will always despise Not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes I got only one reasonable plea Baby, don't you lie to me Burn my house, throw me out Pull me down, sell my clothes I'll dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows I'll be anything you need me to be Baby, don't you lie to me [Bridge] Every time your lips move, baby Someone, somewhere's bound to cry I don't even think you're quite aware of how or why Life for you could be so easy If you'd only shut your mouth Every time you feel those words come Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out Ahhhhhhh! [Outro] There's just one thing, baby I can never abide No matter how much you beg No matter how hard you try You can tell me that I'll never be free Baby, don't you lie to me Drag my name and reputation over the cold, hard stones Break my heart up into pieces, honey, shatter my bones You can k** me with your repartee Baby, don't you lie to me Well, there's just one thing, baby, I will always despise Not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes I got only one reasonable plea Baby, don't you lie to me Burn my house, throw me out Pull me down, sell my clothes, oh yeah I'll dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows I'll be anything you need me to be Baby, don't you lie to me
