Honesty Kills
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.
What's Richard got
That I haven't got
It's not that hideous grin
That puts every girl
that sees him in a spin
You say he's funny and he's nice
And you listen to his advice
Well, maybe listen to some of mine
'Cause it will save you lots of pain and time
Honesty kills
The best of us
And liars like him
Claim the minds
Of the rest of us
The news is all he wants you for
The noose is all he's good for
Remember Richard said
"The broken hearted are easy to bed"
Don't be gullible and kind
'Cause he just wants to get his pockets lined
Honesty kills
The best of us
And liars like him
Claim the minds
Of the rest of us
The news is all he wants you for
The noose is all he's good for
People only see what they want to see
It's a symptom of life's hypocrisy
People only see what they want to see
That's why you're stripping naked in his back seat
People only see what they want to see
The news is all he wants you for
The noose is all he's good for
String him up!
