Song Notes
Recorded in the Insomniac sessions, 'You Lied' would later be released as a bonus track for Nimrod in Australia and as a b-side to the 'Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)' single before finally getting a wide release on the Shenanigans compilation.
Lyrics
You got a problem you just can't hide
Compulsive habits that never seem to die
Your breath is taking up all the air
Your teeth are rotting to black holes in your head
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied
Your mother allowed you just one white lie
But now she's dead and she left you with a problem
Pinocchio has pierced your tongue
Your nose is growing into the third dimension
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied (Uh, you lied)
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied
