Baby Don't You Lie to Me!

Well little girl you can roll your eyes
At the very sight of me
Do everything in spite of me
But baby don't you lie to me
I'll take your mood swings
I'll dig a hole in your dishonesty
I will kneel down in your company
But baby don't you lie to me

I'll be your red-cheeked lover
And your man of regret
There'll be no desert to dry
And no ocean too wet
I'll be your punch bag substitute
I'll sharpen your claws
When you come tumblin' down
You're still in my thoughts

But there's just one thing baby I can never abide
No matter how much you beg
No matter how hard you try
You can tell me that I'll never be free
Baby don't you lie to me

Well little sister I can handle the thought
Of you despisin' me
Dancin' on my grave and baptizin' me
As long as baby you don't lie to me
I'll bend until you have broken my will
I'll be no enemy
You'll never hear so much as a complaint from me
As long as baby you don't lie to me

Well you can take my house
Don't take my pride
Take all my Valentine's cards
And tear them open wide
Chase my friends, ruin my name
I won't ever fight back
I'll be easy to blame

But there's just one thing baby I will always despise
Not the crack of the whip
Or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one resonable plea
Baby don't you lie to me
Burn my house
Sell me out
Pull me down
Sell my clothes
I'll dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows
I'll be anything you need me to be
Baby don't you lie to me

Every time your lips move baby
Someone somewhere's bound to cry
I don't even think you're quite
Aware of how or why
Life for you could be so easy
If you'd only shut your mouth
Every time you feel those words come
Runnin' out (x12)
Aaahhh!

Cuz there's just one thing baby I can never abide
No matter how much you beg
No matter how hard you try
You can tell me that I'll never be free
Baby don't you lie to me

Drag my name and reputation over the cold hard stones
Break my heart up into peaces
Honey shatter my bones
You can kill me with your reparté
Baby don't you lie to me

Yeah there's just one thing baby I will always despise
Not the crack of the whip
Or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one resonable plea
Baby don't you lie to me

Burn my house
Sell me out
Pull me down
Sell my clothes
Oh yeah
I'll dig you out of a hole when your ignorance shows
I'll be anything you need me to be
Baby don't you lie to me
