Oh, what's Richard got
That I haven't got?
It's not that hideous grin
That puts every girl
That sees him in a spin
You say he's funny, ooh and he's nice
And you listen to his advice
Well maybe listen to some of mine
'Cause it will save you
Lots of pain and time
Honesty kills the best of us
And liars like him
Claim the minds of the rest of us
The news, the news, the news is all he wants you for
The noose, the noose, the noose is all he's good for

Remember Richard said
"The broken hearted are easy to bed"
But don't be gullible and kind
'Cause he just wants to get his pockets lined
I say he's a heretic
And a fake
And he deserves to burn at the stake
Put his ashes by the fruit machine
And think of him every time you win
Honesty kills the best of us
And liars like him
Claim the minds of the rest of us
The news, the news, the news is all he wants you for
The noose, the noose, the noose is all he's good for

People only see what they want to see
It's a symptom of life's hypocrisy
People only see what they want to see
That's why you're stripping naked in his back seat
People only see
People only see what they want to see
