The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Lies lies lies

You love those lies

You tell them straight

Straight to my face

They feel so right

They keep you safe

And you're so good at it

Oh it comes automatic

Lies more lies

I can tell they're lies

I can see right through

You have see through eyes

Knocked down drag your name out

All across the town

I won't be your dirty little secret

Not for you

Not for me

Not for your other lover

I won't be your dirty little secret

Oh men like you keep me up at night

You want your woman at home

And your bit on the side

You've got a telephone girl that you carry around

In your jean back pocket with her very own sound

And you're so sly about it

Oh it comes automatic

Yeah you're so good at it

A systematic habit

Sly about it

Oh it comes so automatic

You're so good at it

A systematic habit

Knocked down drag your name out

All across the town

I won't be your dirty secret

Tell your mother

Tell your brother

Tell your friends

Tell your teacher

I won't be your dirty little secret

I won't be your dirty little secret

Knocked down drag your name out

All across the town

I won't be your dirty secret

Not for you

Not for me

Not for your other lover

I won't be your dirty little secret

Knocked down drag your name out

All across the town

I won't be your dirty little secret

Tell your mother

Tell your brother

Tell your friends

Tell your teacher

I won't be your dirty little secret

I won't be your dirty little secret

I won't be

I won't

I won't be

I won't

I won't

I won't

I won't be knocked down
