The Goo Goo Dolls - On The Lie lyrics
[The Goo Goo Dolls - On The Lie lyrics]
He burned down the house one night
He had a loaded six pack gun
He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop
You know, you never know when they'll come
She said every day above ground
Was another dream come true
He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night
But, I'm not in love with you
And I never got serious
Till everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back
On the lie
He said, man you want to be Elvis
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you gotta die facing up in the world
Because there's too many holes around
He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a Hollywood girl
I said that Hollywood can
Fall into the ocean, man
Because it's the ugliest place in
The whole wide world, and
On the lie, he was on the lie
On the lie, she was on the lie
On the lie, he was on the lie
It's all been a stinking lie
He had a loaded six pack gun
He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop
You know, you never know when they'll come
She said every day above ground
Was another dream come true
He said I'd hang and swap clichés all night
But, I'm not in love with you
And I never got serious
Till everything went black
And I ain't so curious
That I'm ever going back
On the lie
He said, man you want to be Elvis
I said I ain't dying face down
He said you gotta die facing up in the world
Because there's too many holes around
He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a Hollywood girl
I said that Hollywood can
Fall into the ocean, man
Because it's the ugliest place in
The whole wide world, and
On the lie, he was on the lie
On the lie, she was on the lie
On the lie, he was on the lie
It's all been a stinking lie
