Secrets And Lies Lyrics - Singles - Jonatha Brooke

Every twenty seconds 

Someone's pounding someone down 

Every thirty more a liar's born 

Every half an hour 

I get up and look around 

Once or twice a day I ask for more 

On a really good day 

There's something in the mail 

Once a week I get a treat 

Other times a month goes by 

But still, I never miss a beat 

Get it on the table 

Pass the gravy, pass the buck 

Get it on the table, secrets and lies 

Silence, faith and luck 

Once a year the holidays 

Come swinging at your head 

Feast until you're full of pain again 

It tightens in your chest 

And now it's written on your face 

You're staring at your lover or your friend 

Get it on the table 

Pass the gravy, pass the buck 

Get it on the table, secrets and lies 

Silence, faith and luck 

'Cuz it's hand to mouth 

Door to door, cradle to the grave 

Asking for more, asking for more 

'Cuz it's hand to mouth 

Door to door, cradle to the grave 

Asking for more, asking for more 

I'm asking for more 

Maybe if you're lucky 

You will have your sunny day 

Once a lifetime, maybe twice 

Even when you're dying 

You're still hungry for the choice 

Was chance the only certainty in life? 

Get it on the table 

Pass the gravy, pass the buck 

Get it on the table, secrets and lies 

Silence, faith and luck 

Get it on the table 

Pass the gravy, pass the buck 

Get it on the table, secrets and lies 

Silence, faith and luck
