SKUNK ANANSIE LYRICS



"Cheap Honesty"


I KNOW TOO WELL

I KNOW THESE LINES

I'VE SEEN THEM SMOTHERED

IN SLEEK RIDICULE



A SEEDY SMILE

THEY THINK THEY'VE SCORED

BUT I KNOW MORNING COMES

AND BABES A::



BRIDGE

ALONE AGAIN, TOO ALONE AGAIN



SO WHAT CAN DO

WITH CHEAP HONESTY

YOU'RE GIVING ME MORE THAN I CAN SEE

BUT I'M TOO COOL TO SAY

THAT I WANT IT ALL MY WAY

GET BLASTED BY THIS SINCERITY



I WISH I HAD

THE STREETS FULL VIEW

THESE PEOPLE SCREAMING

THROUGH THEIR SETTLED LOVES



SO I PRETEND

SO MELLOWED OUT

TOO TEASING

WEAK ENOUGH TO LONG FOR



HOME AGAIN, LOVERLY HOME AGAIN
