Lie Detector
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.
She's a movie star arrangement
Got a touch of bergman to her face
She wears suits and buys him flowers
Smokes his cigarettes and bakes him cakes
He says uh oh I love you
But I'm not sure I trust you
You seem strange to me
She's got green eyes and she's lovely
Reminds me of the 'it' girl with her lips
Got an automatic license
Reads all dostoievsky's household tips
He says uh oh I love you
But I'm not sure I trust you
You seem strange to me
How come everyone suspects her
Attach her to a lie detector
Watch a thousand housewives fizz and burn
And every time she answers yes
The needles on his polygraph test
Just go round in circles like his brain
She's got long hair but she's ugly
Got a touch of einstein to her brain
She wears fat clothes but she's cunning
People say she's easy all the same
He says uh oh I love you
But I'm not sure I trust you
You seem strange to me
It took a thousand cliches just to scold her
Took a man from stepford and a tape recorder
Got his ego broken so crestfallen
You made a start you made us laugh
Stop it you're a grown man baby
It's just that your head's no good
