Lies Lyrics - Sink Or Swim - The Waifs

You read the paper, watch the news and think 

Your well informed 

I've got some new for you my friend 

That headline that you read, the story that broke 

Was a scandle and a scam, a political master stroke 

They tell you what they want you to hear 

So close your eyes and open your ears 

It's easier that way when you don't have to 

Think for your self you say 

I tell you no lies 

I read it all in black and white 

It was on my TV they were telling me just what to believe 

I tell you no lies all the while they're tellin you lies 

Everyday you and me, we see what we are shown 

It's hard to scratch below 

The people at the top, are hidden far from veiw 

They're not goin to show their faces 

To the likes of me and you 

You never see them on the street 

Always see the things that they do 

They know they can get away and no price is too 

High for them to pay
