Doris Day
That Was A Big Fat Lie
When you look at me that way, I must believe the things you say
Why, if you told me night was day, I wouldn't doubt it
Baby, if you told me that the world I thought was round, was flat
Not one of my eyelids would bat, I'm easily touted
But when it comes to matters of the heart
I, and my belief in you, just part
I kind of believed you when you said your nights were lonely
Til the day that I came by
But when you whisper'd that I was your one and only -
That was a big fat lie
I should have been wiser than I was and seen right thro' you
But the moon got in my eye
That stuff about "I never lived until I knew you" -
That was a big fat lie
You must have started to fib when you were wearing a bib
And such a habit's hard to break
A little lie is OK, but when you lie night and day
That's more than even I can take
You told me we ought to marry and I let you sway me
Kissed my happy days â??goodbye'
And when you told that man you' d honour and obey me
That was a big fat lie
An over exaggeration of a super prevarication of a big fat lie!
