lyrics

Despite the fact everyone thinks I'm so debonair and couth
I've been lying through my teeth since the day we met
Everything is a lie, even if you asked me to tell the truth
And you can believe that's a fact because I was lying when I said it

I'm not so sure why you think so highly of me
I'm just a piece of shit like everyone else
Sure I'd go out of my way for just about anybody
But I'm pretty sure I'd make a damn good recluse
Yes that was a double entendré
The words I speak are all venomous lies
You think I'd be surrounded by some sort of stigma
But the funny thing about it is
I attract people like electrostatic charges attract flies

Despite the fact everyone thinks I'm so debonair and couth
I've been lying through my teeth since the day we met
Everything is a lie, even if you asked me to tell the truth
And you can believe that's a fact because I was lying when I said it

And if you've ever heard the parable of the scorpion and the frog
I can assure you I'm the one asking for a ride across the water
But when I stab that bastard in his back
You won't find me at the bottom of that bog
Because unlike the story when he cries out "why?"
I won't tell him "it's in my nature"
Because although it is I'll have another secret
And I'll grin maniacally
The venom I produce isn't fatal
It just bends reality to my whim
You can call that what you like, you can call it cowardly
But as he's sinking into his watery grave
I will tell him, I will tell him
I'll tell him that I can swim
I can swim

Despite the fact everyone thinks I'm so debonair and couth
I've been lying through my teeth since the day we met
Everything is a lie, even if you asked me to tell the truth
And you can believe that's a fact because I was lying when I said it
