I put my lies in the recipe box
Next to the coffee machine
I spilt my lies like an overpoured cup
Then I washed the table clean
Oh father dear, I must confess
I left the kitchen quite a mess
I did what human beings do best
Then I washed it all away
Oh I’ve been true to both of you
But never with myself
You complete me, you defeat me
You keep me in my box of lies
In my box of lies I kept
A card for every lie I told
Some were innocent and sweet
Some were dark and bold
Oh father dear, I must admit
The rings they gave me didn’t fit
My little heart took quite a hit
But I loved my afternoons
Oh I’ve been true to both of you
But never with myself
You complete me, you defeat me
You keep me in my box of lies
In my box of lies
In my box of lies
In my box of lies
Oh I’ve been true to both of you
But never with myself
You complete me, you defeat me
You keep me in my box of lies
My box of lies, my box of lies
In my box of lies
