Shandy (the Perfect Disguise) Lyrics - Singles - Kris Kristofferson

Shandy was somebody's daughter 

Driving to something insane 

They busted her crossing the border 

Quick as a sniff of cocaine 

All she could pay was attention 

So all they could take was her time 

Proving an ounce of possession 

Ain't worth a piece of your mind. 

[Chorus:] 

'Cause nightmares are somebody's daydreams 

Daydreams are somebody's lies 

Lies ain't no harder than telling the truth 

Truth is the perfect disguise

Locked in the goldhandle bathroom 

Martin was changing his mind 

Shedding his humble pretensions 

One careful toke at a time 

And wiping the mask off the man in the mirror 

Who really was Billy the Kid 

Smiling at somebody dying 

For something that he never did 

[Chorus] 

Photos 

As soon as he sat down beside her 

Shining like Saturday night 

Shandy was his for the saving 

Sweet as she looked in the light 

And maybe they moved from the bar to the bedroom 

Maybe just stood there instead 

Martin woke up wet and screaming 

Dreaming of blood on the bed. 

[Chorus]
