John Frusciante
Tellin’ a Lie
[Verse 1]
Would you believe that I’m tellin' a lie
Would you believe that it’s just a disguise
I don’t invent myself to shelter cause the fame won’t kill me
The shame the game the lame
Broken rapture
[Chorus]
You might not be so down
If you knew my frown
You might not come around
Come over anytime, yeahh
[Verse 2]
Would you believe
I would convince myself to hide but not to be with someone else
You crazy bastard
Would you believe that I’m tellin’ a lie
Would you believe what you see in my eye
[Chorus]
You might not be so down
If you knew my frown
You might not come around
Come over anytime
[Verse 3]
Would you believe that I’m tellin’ a lie
Would you believe that I covered you why
I couldn’t tear myself of hatred from the loaded masses
It’s all it’s all a game, you crazy bastard
[Chorus]
You might not be so down
If you knew my frown
You might not come around
Come over anytime
[Verse 4]
Would you believe that I’m
Telling a lie
Would you believe that is
Just a disguise
I don’t avail myself
I share it because the pain won’t kill me
The shame again be late
The broken rapture
[Verse 5]
It might not be so kind
If you knew my crime
It might not come around
Come over any time yeah
Would you believe
I could convince myself
And have it not to be for someone else
You crazy bastard
[Verse 6]
Would you believe that I’m
Telling a lie
Would you believe what you
See in my eyes
It might not be some time
If you knew my crime
You might not come around
Come over any time - mumble about assail
[Instrumental bridge]
[Verse 7]
Would you believe that I’m
Telling a lie
Would you believe that I
Covered you wide
I could compare myself
A patriot from a loaded asset
It’s all it’s all again
You crazy bastard
[Outro]
It might not be so kind
If you knew my crime
You might not come around
Come over any time
Oh so long
I said no
