Lyrics
(Opens with intro)
(Verse 1)
Promises......
Are so easy to sayeeee.
You love this little,
Game that you plaaaay.
Let me tell you babe,
I'm smarter than that.
Don't try to fool me,
Saying this and that.
(No Bridge)
(Chorus)
Talk is cheap,
Ain't never the same.
Talk is cheap,
Don't play that game, don't play that game.
Don't tell me lies, (NO!)
Stop trying me..
Talk is cheap,
And the lies are free.......
(Verse 2)
Action.......
Is what impresses me.
Don't tell me lies.
That's a nasty disease.
I've heard your lines,
I'm certainly wise.
To all you tell me,
With your little white lies.
(Bridge)
Deception.........
Is plain to see.
Don't think for a second,
That you're fooling me.....
Honesty......
Is what I respect.
You're telling me lies,
Makes me madder than heck.
(Chorus)
Talk is cheap,
Ain't never the same.
Talk is cheap,
Don't play that game, don't play that game.
Don't tell me lies, (NO!)
Stop trying me..
Talk is cheap,
And the lies are free.......
(Verse 3)
Respect...........
Is all I ask from you.
You seem to take me,
For such a fool.
Don't you think,
That I am that naive.
You'll only find,
Is what you believe.
(Bridge)
Deception.........
Is plain to see.
Don't think for a second,
That you're fooling me.....
Honesty......
Is what I respect.
You're telling me lies,
Makes me madder than heck.
(Chorus)
Talk is cheap,
Ain't never the same.
Talk is cheap,
Don't play that game, don't play that game.
Don't tell me lies, (NO!)
Stop trying me..
Talk is cheap,
And the lies are free.......
