You come on strong with a great big smile

But your teeth are as sharp as a crocodile

You promised me the moon and the stars and the sun

But you never did nothin' for anyone

Can't look me in the face or straight in the eye

I'd buy the movie rights to your alibi

I wonder how low you will go

I wonder how high your head will blow

You're a psychopathic liar

Your soul is on fire

You're bluffin' with nuthin'

While the stakes are gettin' higher



Why trust you

You never made a dream come true

Why trust you

Give me one good reason, one good reason why



You come to me all teary-eyed

With your big tall tale way up in the sky

Begging on your knees for another chance

But everybody knows that's a song and a dance

There used to be a time when you were the best

You had the fastest tongue in the west

Ya gave a look and a line like nobody else

You'd try to sell the Bible to the Devil, himself

You sadistic little liar

You're walkin' on the wire

You're bluffin' up with nothin'

And the bills are gettin' higher



Why trust you

Give me one good reason, one good reason why

Trust you



The noose is getting tighter

Your face is turning whiter

You can stuff it up your muffin and go stick it in the fire

Why trust you

You never made a dream come true

Why trust you, give me one good reason, one good reason

Why trust you, you never made a dream come true

Why trust you, give me one good reason, one good reason

Why trust you, why trust you

Why trust you, why trust you

Why trust you
