I Lie

Jimmie's Chicken Shack

All of those little things

I don't want to share

I know what I want

But it just isn't there



And I lie

Yah I lie



We're too tight to tango

But not one in the same

Apprehension is the answer

In this unwilling game



Why try

When you can lie



I don't think I can

Hate myself any worse

Still I grow more comfortable

With every verse



And I lie

Yah I lie



I don't like to chain to smoke

I don't like to think

I never liked acid

And my clothes do not stink

And like an aomeba

In my single cell

As I spread myself thinner

Do I choose my hell



When I die

You know I'll lie

Still my bed could not grow

To suite all of my needs

Now I make my bed

I must follow the deed



So I lie

In it

I lie in it

Yah I lie

By ommission

I lie

With your permission

Yah I lie

Yah I lie

Yah I lie

That's the truth
