Freddie Mercury
Liar (Live at the Rainbow, London / November 1974)
Freddie: It's a number called 'Liar'
I have sinned, Dear Father
Father, I have sinned
Try and help me Father
Won't you let me in?
Liar! Ohh nobody believes me
Liar! Why don't you leave me?
Sire, I have stolen
Stolen many times
Raised my voice in anger
When I know I never should
Liar! Oh everybody deceives me
Liar! Why don't you leave me alone
Liar! I have sailed the seas
Liar! from Mars to Mercury
Liar! I have drunk the wine
Liar! time after time
Liar! You're lying to me
Liar, yes, you're lying to me
Father, please forgive me
You know you'll never leave me
Please will you direct me
In the right way
In the right way
The right, oh right-ah-way
Liar, Liar, Liar
Liar!
Liar! that's what they call me
Liar! every day and every night
Liar! all the time
Liar! oh, woh-woh-woh
They keep calling me "liar"
They know I'm a liar
Now that's the way to go-oh-oh
(guitar solo)
Listen!
Now you're gonna listen
Yeah
Mama, I'm gonna be your slave --all day long
Mama, I'm gonna try behave--all day long
Mama, I'm gonna be your slave--all day long
Mama, I'm gonna be your slave--all day long
I'm gonna love you till your dying day--all day long
I'm gonna kneel down by your side and pray--all day long
I'm gonna love you till your dying day--all day long
(additional guitar solo)
All day long (all day long)
All day long (all day long)
All day long (all day long)
All day long (all day long)
I'm gonna pray (all day long)
I'm gonna kneel down (all day long)
I'm gonna kneel down by your side
I'm gonna pray
I'm gonna pray
All day long, all day long, all day long
Liar, liar, they never ever let you win
Liar, liar, everything you do is sin
Liar, nobody believes you
Liar, they bring you down before you begin
Now let me tell you this
So now you know you could be dead before they let you
(Brian: Great, thanks a lot, thanks a lot for making it seem like coming home to the Rainbow this time, it's been really great)
