don't say that you said
everything i said not to say
I know you don't remember that
I know you won't remember this
but from now on I only tell lies

I know your word is no good
as long as its understood
so far as you realize
I only tell lies

CHORUS: I don't tell my secrets anymore
There should be no surprise
That I don't tell my secrets anymore
I only tell lies

If only you knew
all the damage that you can do
now you'll need a photograph
a signature and witnesses
'cause from now on I only tell lies

you'll need someone to confess
and educated guess
or see it with your own eyes
I only tell lies

I used to say not just what came to mind casually
but all those things that no one else could ever know of me

CHORUS

I'll tell you every intimate moment
without sparing a detail
but this I
truly must confide

I don't tell my secrets anymore
I only tell lies

(solo)

someday it'll come back to you
all those things that you think are true
are all wearing a clever disguise
I only tell lies

I used to say not just what came to mind casually
but all those things that no one else would ever know of me

CHORUS

no, I don't tell my secrets anymore
you'll see it in my eyes
that I don't tell my secrets anymore
I only tell lies
