He burnt down the house one night
He had a loaded sixpack gun
He said that jesus christ was just like a cop
You know you never know when they`ll come
She said every day above ground
Was another dream come true
He said I`d hang and swap cliches all night
But I`m not in love with you
And I never got serious
Til everything went black
And I ain`t so curious
That I`m ever going back
On the lie
He said man you want to be Elvis
I said I ain`t dying face down
He said you`ve got to die facing up in the world
Cause there`s too many holes around
He asked what was wrong with me
He said I looked like a hollywood girl
I said that hollywood can fall into the ocean, man
Cause it`s the ugliest place in the whole wide world
And I never got serious
Til everything went black
And I ain`t so curious
That I`m ever going back
On the lie
