You Can't Hide Your Lying Eyes

There it is again 
That coy, sheepish look
I've seen every deception 
Written down in your book

So clever, you think
You're alibi bound
But the expression you make
As your eyes dart around 

Searching and fumbling
You stutter your vowels
But the bile you'll spit
Will come straight from your bowels

So spin your dark lies
Go on and deceive
I'm packing my bags
Oh what a web you weave

Thanks Kevin! Yep, I had to scrape that barnacle off my hull. Too flaky, too dull! I need to meet someone meek. Oh where are the good women that I seek?
