We started out with plans And blueprints in our hands We were gonna build a perfect love But we got tangled in the wire And our feet just got so tired And so we were this close to giving up And now you got this secret And I really hope you keep it ‘cause you know how I love the mystery You’re always coming late From work every day And I can tell by the way you look at me Oh, I see that My, my, my what a pretty lie Just don’t stop now Will you take your time? ‘Cause I like the way you look When you don’t think I know what you do But I do And oh sweet lord, what a dreadful bore Would my life be without your sweet whore And the fiction of our love Has always been enough for me it seems I think that I’m addicted To your artificial kisses And oh I love the nervous way you stand And all that added warmth When you hold me in your arms Even though the heat is secondhand ‘Cause you look so good, you look so new In those clothes I didn’t buy for you And oh the way you lie, it drives me mad I’ve got a right to jealousy And really this should bother me But I don’t care, and you know I never have I never have, ‘cause My, my, my what a pretty lie Just don’t stop now Will you take your time? ‘Cause I like the way you look When you don’t think I know what you do But I do And oh sweet lord, what a dreadful bore Would my life be without your sweet whore And the fiction of our love Has always been enough for me it seems Let’s rip some pages from these books And never take a second look String up all our facts upon a stake And we will torch it through and through And we will watch the glaring truth Shrivel up and wither in the flames And then we’ll set the fiction free Running rampant in the streets The sky will glow with all our brilliant lies Oh, and maybe then I’ll see The truth it doesn’t bother me And I will get to sleep again tonight That’s right My, my, my what a pretty lie No I won’t stop now I’ll just take my time cause I I like the way I look When nothing seems to bother me ‘cause I see that Oh hot damn, what a fool I am Just to play it cool When it’s everything And the fiction of our love Has never been enough for me, I see
