Why Trust You - Lyrics by Cooper Alice


Lyrics
You come on strong with a greatbig smile
But your teeth are as sharp as acrocodile
You promised me the moon andthe stars and the sun
But you never did nothin' foranyone
Can't look me in the face orstraight in the eye
I'd buy the movie rights to youralibi
I wonder how long you will go
I wonder how high your head willblow
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 cometrue
Why trust you
Give me one good reason, onegood reason why
You come to me all teary-eyed
With your big tall tale way up inthe sky
Begging on your knees foranother chance
But everybody knows that's asong and a dance
There used to be a time when youwere the best
You had the fastest tongue in thewest
Ya gave a look and a line likenobody 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, onegood reason why
Trust you
The noose is getting tighter
Your face is turning whiter
You can stuff it up your muffinand go stick it in the fire
Why trust you
You never made a dream cometrue
Why trust you, give me one goodreason, one good reason
Why trust you, you never made adream come true
Why trust you, give me one goodreason, one good reason
Why trust you, why trust you
Why trust you, why trust you
Why trust you
