The Lying Blues

Woke up in the morning
With lies on my radio
Woke up in the morning
With lies on my radio
Said- Don’t be uptight ‘cos everything is alright
If you just stay tuned to my show

Got up and caught the train
But lies stood along the line
Got up and caught the train
But lies stood along the line
They said if I soak up lungs full of smoke
Health and happiness will be mine

Saw the morning paper
Where the lies werern’t hard to find
Saw the morning paper
Where the lies werern’t hard to find
It said that show biz,TV, sport and nudies,
Where all that happened all the time

Down at the disco
Were the same lies with a beat
Down at the disco
Were the same lies with a beat
Sayin’ feelin good is bein’ good
So live your life like you move your feet

Looked at my TV
They had experts telling lies
Looked at my TV
They had experts telling lies
But you couldn't tell, it was done so well,
Being expert is a great disguise

Looking at the adverts
They were dressed to kill
Looked at the adverts
They were dressed to kill
I dropped my guard to give a laugh out load
And they came in and took my will

Brought me a magazine
And it’s lies were done with class
Brought me a magazine
And it’s lies were done with class
They said it’s ok most people do today
If it feels good just don’t ask.
