Lyrics
TELL NO LIES (P) Thomas Formanek (ASCAP) Someone's messin' with my head Gotta keep myself from bein' mislead When I'm all alone, they call me on the phone But I never get to hear what they said Someone's knockin' on the door But I can't get my feet down on the floor I looked at the clock, it was two AM What'd you wanna do that to me for? All these things make me just want to shout I heard a voice tell me you better straighten out That said, Tell no lies - to people that you know Realise - the truth will overflow When they find - you've been yankin' on their chain They will all begin to drive you insane Whoa! Someone's messin' with my mind Don't know what they think they're gonna find When I open my mail, you know it just never fails Empty envelopes and flyers for sales Someone's messin with my car Don't think I'm gonna get too far My windshield was smashed with a baseball bat And all four of my tires were flat So I learned to tell the truth for a change Now my life is back in order - re-arranged 'Cause the voices said Tell no lies - to people that you know Realise - the truth will overflow When they find - you've been yankin' on their chain They will all begin to drive you insane Yeah, (Repeat)
