lyrics

Another night spent working on my TV tan lines
Cos you could make rejection an Olympic past-time
You don’t tell me lies the way you used to, baby
And that just leaves me hanging on and on and on and on….

And you got told that slow and steady wins you races
But you go slow and steady in unusual places
You don’t tell me lies with any real conviction
And that just leaves me hanging on and on and on and on

Yeah you cheat
And you lie
But you don’t know how to say goodbye
Yeah you cheat
And you lie
And the truth hurts even more

So why’d you try and wear your halo far too tightly
Cos butter wouldn’t melt when you act that politely
You control the truth to suit your own agenda
And that just keeps me hanging on and on and on and on
