| [00:11.92] |
All sweetly sung and succinctly stated |
| [00:15.17] |
Words and music you calculated |
| [00:18.52] |
To make you sing along |
| [00:21.67] |
With your stereo on |
| [00:24.13] |
As you stand in your shorts on your lawn |
| [00:27.40] |
|
| [00:27.71] |
Get completely incorporated |
| [00:30.83] |
By some couple who consummated |
| [00:34.05] |
Their first love by the dawn |
| [00:37.15] |
A falling star wished upon |
| [00:39.84] |
And flashed in the sky and was gone |
| [00:43.07] |
|
| [00:43.85] |
And that's when ...* |
| [00:49.63] |
|
| [00:49.82] |
By the back room, the kids all waited |
| [00:52.74] |
To meet the man in bright green |
| [00:56.00] |
Who had dreamed up the dream that |
| [00:58.99] |
they rest their hearts upon |
| [01:01.41] |
He's the liar who lied in his pop song |
| [01:04.62] |
And you're lying when you sing along |
| [01:07.70] |
And you're lying when you sing along |
| [01:13.08] |
|
| [01:23.80] |
So, here's the car seat, so cruelly weighted |
| [01:27.00] |
And here's the faces already faded |
| [01:30.14] |
At the end of the day |
| [01:33.21] |
When they just threw away |
| [01:36.30] |
the only good thing that they owned |
| [01:38.61] |
|
| [01:38.82] |
And now they're ...* |
| [01:45.55] |
|
| [01:45.72] |
But at the food court, the float's inflated |
| [01:49.04] |
People line up to see the man |
| [01:51.84] |
who dreamed up the dream that |
| [01:54.75] |
they rest their hearts upon |
| [01:57.37] |
He's the liar who lied in his pop song |
| [02:00.70] |
The liar who lied in his pop song |
| [02:03.65] |
And you're lying when you sing along |
| [02:06.42] |
Oh yeah, you're lying when you sing along |
| [02:11.56] |
|
| [02:11.95] |
Week by week, it climbs up and comes on |
| [02:14.81] |
And we're feeling alright, though we know it's all wrong |
| [02:18.29] |
I'm ashamed to admit that |
| [02:20.53] |
I can't help resist what I wished was the truth, |
| [02:22.96] |
but it's not |
| [02:24.13] |
|
| [02:24.33] |
And I truly believe we're not strong |
| [02:26.90] |
And we'll sing til our voices are gone |
| [02:30.12] |
And ...* |
| [02:37.64] |
|
| [02:46.13] |
This is respectfully dedicated |
| [02:49.63] |
To the woman who concentrated |
| [02:53.42] |
All of her love to find |
| [02:56.79] |
That she'd wasted it on |
| [03:00.26] |
The liar who lied in this song |
| [03:08.10] |
|
