"Baby," you say,
As we sail around Saginaw Bay,
"I am as constant as that black shit all over the beach
I'm always within reach
And I'll always be loving you just this very way."
Oh baby,
When your lips are moving
What it's doing to me
Oh sugar,
When your lips
~such lips!~
Are moving,
Things are clearer to me
When your lips are moving
That's how I know you're lying.
You say, "Honeybun,"
As you shoplift a pack of gum,
"I am as constant as this always-open convenience store
You'll always want more
And I'll always be here to give you some..."
But baby,
When your lips are moving
It's like Heaven to me
Oh Pookie,
When your lips
~those lips!~
Are moving,
Truth gets nearer to me
When your lips are moving
That's how I know you're lying.
"Snookums," you say,
As we're navigating by the stars,
"I am as constant as the patient voice on the voicemail of your mind
You will always have my heart
And we'll always be happy just the way we are."
But Princess,
When your lips are moving,
It's enchanting to me
Oh sweetie,
When your lips
~such lips!~
Are moving,
You're even dearer to me
When your lips are moving
That's how I know you're lying.

Oh yeah!
ReplyDelete"I am as constant as that black shit all over the beach" - what's up with that shit?
ReplyDeleteThis brought so many things to mind - how the ones who lie the best are the ones who capture our imagination; a summer romance which is always full of bullshit; and politiicans....yeah...my mind works that way.
Hope you're having a fabulous Fourth, Shay!
It's true, Talon, there is all this black gunk on the beach there. From the nearby chemical plant, I'm told. Niiiiice, right?
ReplyDeleteThis is great!
ReplyDeleteIt's the pillow talk, those sweet promises in the dark, that can leave us feeling like that black shit all over the beach.
ReplyDeleteHope all's bright and sunny and magical in your corner of the world today, my friend.
It's raining gatos y perros here today, but tonight there'll be fireworks! Woo-hoo!!
Fabulous, Shay. I had to laugh out loud at the end. I just said to my husband yesterday, "You know how I know you're lying?" He replied, of coure, "No, how." I said, "BECAUSE YOUR LIPS ARE MOVING!" We had a good laugh. (He is a terrible liar...he could never be a lawyer. Ha!) Blessings and Happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteI don't like those liars too much. :) Happy 4th, Shay!
ReplyDeletewould the real Shay run?
