Walter Becker - Book Of Liars lyrics

Bye and bye now We'll get over The things we've done and the things we said But not just now when I can 't remember Exactly what it was I thought we had 'Cause I waited so long girl and I came so far To find out you're not always who you say you are And there's a star in the book of liars by your name Santa Claus came in late last night Drunk on Christmas wine Fell down hard in the driveway Hung his bag out on the laundry line There's a Cobra Gunship for his golden boy And there's a Hello Kitty for his pride and joy And a silver star in the book of liars by your name They hung a star in the book of liars by your name Stars imploding The long night pa**ing Electrons dancing in the frozen crystal dawn Here's one left stranded at the zero crossing With a hole in it's half-life left to carry on But now the world's much larger than it looks today And if my bad luck ever blows me back this way Then I'll just look in my book of liars for your name I'll just look in the book of liars for your name
