I was born on a Tuesday at sundown
On the year of the ape
You were barely conceived at the hoedown
Your mama said it was rape
Girl, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Your hands are soft like your heart, girl
Your eyes damp, blood in your ears
Your shadow's been broken to pieces
By the light of your fears
Girl, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Girl, don't you lie to me
Lie with me
Even Eve set a better example
For Able n Cain
Than the one that you set to my heart, girl
You've turned it into my brain
Girl, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Girl, don't you lie to me
Lie with me
The sky's turning black
Can't tell your face from back
And your spastic plastic wings
Just take a sip of this wine
N rest your cards down by mine
Your jokers n your kings
Girl, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Girl, don't you lie to me
Lie with me
Your gentle roar echoes clearly
Thru your lyin lion's den
Even my hair is starting to grow weary
Think I'll go practice my Zen
Girl, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Girl, don't you lie to me
Lie with me
I made up the bed for the night, girl
Feather pillows n milk white sheets
You made up your head, that's alright, girl
Let's make up, we're on the same side of the street
Girl, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Girl, don't you lie to me
Lie with me
