ALIBIS

If this is only just a dream I’m having, do you think that you could step aside?
You really think the world spins around you.
I don’t follow what you’re trying to hide.

It’s just alibis.

Be careful now, your claws are showing. We’re not connecting like we once did.
I guess I’ll see you in the funny papers.
Who exactly are you trying to kid?

I can’t help it. Want to cut out your tongue.
Never thought I’d sing what I’ve just sung.
Thought this was real but it’s lies, lies, lies.
It’s just a-l-i-b-i-s. Alibis.

I thought I had you in my trouser pocket. I didn’t know that the devil’d been paid.
Nobody told me I was just the past tense.
Somebody’s sure full of herself today.

It’s just love, and that’s the way it goes now. A reckless heathen clinging on to you.
Did you really think you pulled a fast one?
Come on, baby, who’s fooling who?
Let’s talk about the times I held your body. Romanticize it. Leave out all the facts.
I know I’m talking to the back of your head.
Waiting here for you to drop the axe.
