You must think that I'm a fool
This twisted tenderness just leaves me cool
You've got me in a mess, you know it's [bad word] 
Out in the wilderness here without you

Right outside, it's a [bad word] world
Something's happenin', it's distractin'
You're just bad news girl

Never let that feeling die
All you've got to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
I will never let you down
Spread this message all around
That I hope and that I pray
You can turn my life around

Take a look out there
We're under house arrest and you don't care
We could always be friends
But you were careless right till the end

I feel guilty, oh it's such a shame
It's [bad word] #39;, it's a sad thin'
And there's no one else to blame

Never let that feeling die
All you've got to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
I won't ever let you down
Spread this message all around
That I hope and that I pray
You won't take my love to town

Tell a little lie, tell a little lie
That's all you have to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's [bad word] 

Right outside it's a [bad word] world
Something's happenin', it's distractin'
You're just bad news girl

Never let that feeling die
All you've got to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
I won't ever let you down
Spread this message all around
That I hope and that I pray
You won't take my love to town

Tell a little lie, tell a little lie
That's all you have to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's [bad word] 

Don't you know it's [bad word] 
(Don't you know it's [bad word] )
Hey don't you know it's [bad word] 
(Don't you know it's [bad word] )
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
(Don't you know it's [bad word] )
Hey don't you know it's [bad word] 
(Don't you know it's [bad word] )
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
Don't you know it's [bad word] 
Don't you know that it's [bad word]
