Photographic memories
Scanners on our love affair
Like we were the L.A. Times
The headlines read, 'Beware'

I don't deal in hearsay
Calculation ain't my game
But today I see you
And I hang my head in shame

Lipstick on your collar
And the color isn't mine
White lines on the dresser
And you even drank my wine

Babe, your face is flushed
It's more than just a hunch
Tell me, what's this fear
Maybe she's still here

Baby, you're an alibi
You cross your heart and hope to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby, you're an alibi

Looking out the window
I can hear an engine roar
Cobalt Blue Pantera dashes through the garage door
Now you cry injustice and synthetic violins
Every night outside my door
Acandle in the wind

Lipstick on your collar
And the color isn't mine
White lines on the dresser
And you even drank my wine

Babe, your face is flushed
It's more than just a hunch
Tell me, what's this fear
Maybe the picture is clear

Baby, you're an alibi
You cross your heart and hope to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby, you're an alibi

Ooh ah, baby
Ooh ah, alibi
Ooh ah, baby
Ooh ah, alibi

Lipstick on your collar
And the color isn't mine
White lines on the dresser
And you even drank my wine
Babe, your face is flushed
It's more than just a hunch
Tell me, what's this fear
Maybe the end is near

Alibi
You crossed your heart and hoped to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby, you're just an alibi
[Incomprehensible]

Alibi
You crossed your heart and hoped to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby, you're just an alibi

You're just an
Just an, just an, just an
Alibi
You crossed your heart and hoped to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby, you're just an alibi

I flash back to another time zone
When you were late most every night
I was a prisoner by my own device
And what about your distant cousin?
You know the one that lives in France
No introduction, only a harlequin romance

Ooh, alibi
(Love, lines, angles and rhymes)
Alibis
You crossed your heart and hoped to die
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Alibis
You're gonna hurt me, baby
Alibi
