Lyrics
"False Identity" - August 2009
Verse 1
She found the perfect neighbor in you
Who sips latte with a Central Park view
Who watches Oprah daily at four
And hates summers at the Jersey Shore
Pre-Chorus
She's just what you asked for, you invited her in
She's here to stay, now she won't go away
Chorus
You want to be kind, but that's what makes you blind
Your generosity, feeds the conspiracy
When you think it's safe, the serpent strikes
She'll paralyze, before you realize
Her false identity, her false identity
Verse 2
She'll go for a swim at your Hampton estate
Fly to the Cape, taste the Chardonnay
With poochy in the front row seats
And your Gucci pumps on her pedicured feet
Repeat Pre-Chorus
She's pulling your strings, like a Marionette
You think you're having fun, but her web's been spun
Repeat Chorus
You want to be kind, but that's what makes you blind
Your generosity, feeds the conspiracy
When you think it's safe, the serpent strikes
She'll paralyze, before you realize
Her false identity, her false identity (repeat)
Bridge
Like the mantis, who eats her mate
Or the black widow who seals your fate
She's a scorpion that's about to sting
She takes your life and steals everything
False identity...
Repeat Chorus
You want to be kind, but that's what makes you blind
Your generosity, feeds the conspiracy
When you think it's safe, the serpent strikes
She'll paralyze, before you realize
Her false identity, her false identity (repeat)
False identity (repeat)
