Lyrics
PRETTY PACK O' LIES
Words and music by Ron Day
Verse1:
I don't think I'll hang around here... maybe I could
Flyin' so high no landing gear don't do nobody good
You slide around this sleazy town nose pressed to the sky... high high high
You slide around this rocket town thinkin' you'll never die
Chorus:
Lies Lies it's all a pretty pack o' lies
And then you're fallin' down
Watch out as you hit the ground hit it (repeat)
2nd ch Head down as you hit the ground
Verse2:
I don't think I stand a chance baby of watchin' you grow old
Pin cushion Lucy She Died and the ice is flowin' cold
You fly around this rocket town Way high late at night
You slide around this funky town Aint never gonna die...Lies Lies
Chorus:
Bridge:
I know I know you try some you live and some you die
I know Love'll find a way when it comes to you another day
I know I know you'll see when it brings you to your knees
I hope I hope you see its all lies
Chorus:
Chorus Out: I Say Lies, Repeat repeat...it's a pretty pack o lies
