Hotel Lux - Tabloid Newspaper lyrics

Damn flashbacks, man

My favourite thing abut telling a story
Is you can bollocks your way along
I start the first half of it
A little white lie and then I just carry on
I like to blur the line between
Style and substance
Just to get my point across
I like to blur the line between truth and
Bollocks just to get my point across

I'm like a tabloid newspaper
I'm like a preacher man devoid of integrity
I'm a liar i'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth

I'm very keen on the notion of falsity
Just to make it a better song
I love the idea of bending a tale
Just to make it a better one
We never really sat at the
Bar quoting Danny Dyer
Drinking Stella Artois
Who do you think I am
Do you think I'm an honest man?
(No, I don't)

I'm like a tabloid newspaper
I'm like a preacher man devoid of integrity
I'm a liar i'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth

I was always told that the very best
Lyrics would come straight from the heart
I was always told that every lyric I wrote
It would tear me apart
I would have a notebook full
Of my deepest thoughts
And I would sing them to a tune
So my iPhone's full of clever little lines
I sing them out of tune
I sing them out of tune

I'm like a tabloid newspaper
I'm like a preacher man devoid of integrity
I'm a liar i'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
I'm a twister of the truth
