[Verse 1]
I see you comin' through the door
Creepin' it's a quarter past four and
I smell the scent of cheap perfume
Who is she? You step in the room
With a guilty look upon your face
Busted, you stutter to say
"Really, really, baby - I can explain"
Save your breath I've got something to say

[Chorus]
Every word you say is lies, lies, lies
And now I'm leaving you so bye, bye, bye
I can't take no more of this cry, cry, cryin'
You know that you ain't shit with your lies, lies, lies

[Verse 2]
Don't bother to apologize
It's too late, heard it all before
And it should come as no surprise
I'm leavin', I packed my things
'Cuz I'm through with this merry-go-round
I'm getting off, I finally found
My strength way deep down
I shoulda left your ass after the first round

[Chorus]
Every word you say is lies, lies, lies
And now I'm leaving you so bye, bye, bye
I can't take no more of this cry, cry, cryin'
You know that you ain't shit with your lies, lies, lies

[Bridge]
Please, please, whoa, please
Yeah, whatcha gon' do? Tell your boys about
How you got over again?
Yeah, right!
Get off your knees, oh, baby, please
You cannot tell the truth
You see this fire in my eyes is all because of you
All you do is lie!

[Chorus]
Every word you say is lies, lies, lies
And now I'm leaving you so bye, bye, bye
I can't take no more of this cry, cry, cryin'
You know that you ain't shit with your lies, lies, lies
