Alibis Lyrics - Ocean Colour Scene

You told so many lies, your tongue is black with fireflies 

But you spit them out and pretend you're sneezing 

And every word is such a joke 

With so many pasts you'd be ninety years old 

Don't you wonder why the room keeps on leaving 

Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say 

Don't think that I would never need it 

Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say 

Don't think that I would ever believe it 

It's just a thought and nothing more 

That all your thoughts and moves are taught 

And memorized each night before your sleeping 

And every word is such a joke 

Strung from neon masts flying flags you hope 

Will win you friends and give your life some meaning 

Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say 

Don't think that I would never need it 

Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say 

Don't think that I would ever believe it 

You told so many lies, your tongue is stained with alibis 

You've been around the world and found it pleasing 

And every word is such a joke 

With so many pasts you'd be a hundred years old 

Don't you wonder why the room keeps on leaving 

Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say 

Don't think that I would never need it 

Hey, hey, what's that I heard you say 

Don't think that I would ever believe it
