It's A Lie (Reissue Bonus Track)

(专辑： Tattoo You - 1981)

People say they saw me in Africa
Out in the bush, shooting lions
Flew on up, Nigeria
Posted the heads on line

And I heard that you got a new baby
With an old friend of mine
He's an MBA, yeah, he's a billionaire, you've been
Totally redesigned

Well, it's a lie
It's a lie
It's a low down, dirty lie
Don't make me laugh
Don't make me cry

Well, yeah, it's a lie
It's a lie
It's a low down, vicious lie
Yeah
Don't make me laugh
Don't make me cry
Don't make me cry

All summer long, I've been in Italy
Tipping and downing the wine
On the run with a different duchess every night

But my only lover came from antiquity
Found her on a building sign
She's got no head, she's cut from marble, so white

Well, it's a lie
It's a lie
I've been questioned by the FBI
I've got a clean sheet, hung over my head
Holding it high

Well, it's a lie
It's a lie
It's a low down, dirty lie
Don't make me laugh
Don't make me cry
Don't make me cry

Well, I just heard, I'm getting married
'Round about the 4th of July
Honeymoon in Hawaii, put it in your diary
Don't forget your black tie

Well, it's a lie
It's a lie
I swear it on my mother's life
My conscience is clear, I've got nothing to hide
Nothing to hide

Well, it's a lie
It's a lie
Well, it's a low down, dirty lie
Don't make me laugh
Don't make me cry
Don't make me cry

Stole an election, took her to a fence
Tried to get the highest price
The whole thing is passé, we'll pull it all in, babe
Should've took my lawyer's advice

It's a lie
It's a lie
It's a low down, dirty lie
Don't make me laugh, don't make me cry

Well
It's a lie
It's a lie
A vicious, despicable lie
Don't make me laugh
Don't make me cry, yeah
