Get up from a dream and I look for rain
Take an amphetamine and a crushed rat brain
How am I feeling? Better, I suppose
How am I looking, I don't want the truth
What am I doin', I ain't in my youth
I'm past my prime... or was that just a pose?
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by on those
I've been accused of never opening up
You get too close then I keep my mouth shut
I'm gonna run to the wind where the big bad city blows
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by on those
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by on those.
Well you can dress to the eights, you can dress to main
Make you feel great, this fortune and fame
Wearin' too much make-up... not near enough clothes
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by on those
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by on those.
So don't pin your hopes or pin your dreams
On misanthropes or guys like me
But the truth is overrated... I suppose
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by on those
It's a wonderful lie, I still get by ...
