Half The Truth

Girl and boy
Everything in full swing
Heads or tails
Doesn't make a difference
Beneath the glamour
There was always gonna be
Amateur dramatics
A lot of bad behavior
I would see
Glasses on the table
One two three
But only you and me
Wearing nothing
In the lap of luxury
Sipping slowly
Not a leg to stand on
Take my money
Waste of paper
Leave the table
Bad behavior
I got my spies
Sitting with me constantly
To be my eyes
And tell me what I never see
Cos a ghost
Don?t fear love or nothing
Teflon cow
Get ready for the credit clobber
Secret mole
Getting it together
With a big fat bowl
Of alphabet spaghetti
Watch the birdie
Looking through the mirror
Polly want a cracker?
That?s not what I heard
Take my money
Waste of paper
Leave the table
Bad behavior
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I will not lie to you
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I will not lie to you
Gentlemen,
Turn off your recorders
I can hear them buzzing
From inside of your tracksuits
Got to get to
California
Where this woman
Is threatening to sue me
Get right back
Back to the beginning
Where we start off single
And everything in full swing
Everyone?s around you wearing big old hats
Come on
I?m playing the piano now
Take my money
Waste of paper
Leave the table
Bad behavior
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I will not lie to you
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I will not lie to you
Rapping:
Listen... I wont lie
So baby dont cry
The way I'm feeling right now
I'm feeling so high
I cant tell you the truth
Baby you know why
Cause everybody talks about me
I'm a known guy
I'll tell you half the truth
At least I told you half
For all the rest of it
I'll tell you if you only ask
Cause I'm a gold digga
And I should know better
I will not lie to you
But I defiantly only gave you half the truth
I will not lie to you
I will not lie to you
I will not lie to you
I will not lie to you
