Billie Joe Armstrong
You Lied
[Verse 1]
You got a problem you just can't hide
Compulsive habits that never seem to die
Your breath is taking up all the air
Your teeth are rotting to black holes in your head
[Chorus]
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied
[Verse 2]
Your mother allowed you just one white lie
But now she's dead and she left you with a problem
Pinocchio has pierced your tongue
Your nose is growing into the third dimension
[Chorus]
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied (Uh, you lied)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied
