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 too dry and no ocean too wet
I’ll be your punchbag substitute
I’ll sharpen your claws
When you come tumbling down you’re still in my thoughts
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 despising me
Dancing on my grave and baptizing 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
And count 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
Well, there's just one thing, baby, I will always despise
Not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one reasonable plea
Baby, don't you lie to me
Burn my house, throw 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, runnin' out, runnin' out
Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out
Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out
Runnin' out, runnin' out, runnin' out
Ahhhhhhh!
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 pieces, honey, shatter my bones
You can kill me with your repartee
Baby, don't you lie to me
Well, there's just one thing, baby, I will always despise
Not the crack of your whip or the hatred in your eyes
I got only one reasonable plea
Baby, don't you lie to me
Burn my house, throw 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
