I Can’t Stop Lying Lyrics by The Bevis Frond

It Just Is

1993

Oh, I am everything you see & I am everyone you know
I've got a classical degree & I've got a monster down below
I've got a string of young admirers who love every note I play
Got a problem with my woman - don't believe a word I say
And I long for her respect, but it hasn't happened yet
So I try to play it cool, but she thinks that I'm a fool
'Cos I can't stop lying
No, I can't stop lying

There is nowhere in this world that I haven't laid my hat
There's a trail of fancy headgear from Alaska to Eilat
I've got countless opportunities to further my career
And I listen to the voices when they whisper in my ear
But she cause me so much grief with her disbelief
And it burns me to my soul, but it's out of my control
'Cos I can't stop lying
No, I can't stop lying

And if you believe this, you'll believe anything

[Spoken line]
I was the lead tenor with the Albuquerque Opera Company for the last two seasons
I was the lead tenor with the Albuquerque Opera Company for the last two seasons
I was the lead tenor with the Albuquerque Opera Company for the last two seasons

How can I possibly retract all of the things that I have said?
All those fascinating tales were manufactured in my head
How can I possibly admit to her that all is not so swell?
And that I'm drowning in confusion at the bottom of a well
And the walls are so steep, and I'm in too deep
And it sounds as if it's true, but there's nothing I can do
'Cos I can't stop lying, yeah
No, I can't stop lying, yeah
No, I can't stop lying, yeah!
No, I can't stop lying, yeah, all right!
Right on!
