Lyrics
Little white lies cannot be disguised
Or hidden behind your eyes tonight
Basic baby games, it's really quite insane
Can you tell me your name again sometime?
Major human genes, somehow never seen
Can't help but wonder where you've been
Tiny little tears, they run down my cheek
Won't you tell me what it is I truly seek?
It's all smoke and mirrors
A mirage of hopeful truth
What is a guy, what is a guy supposed to do?
When it's always smoke and mirrors
Eliminate the tears
More smoke and mirrors from you
Frankly my friend what else do you say?
When you know somehow you will be OK
Call upon your team. Are you really that mean?
To leave me so far behind this scene
If only the right one could be found
From the more than enough to go around
I'd claim some sanity, and plead my case
For one special one from the human race
Little white lies cannot be disguised
Or hidden behind your eyes tonight
You know those baby games, are really quite insane
Can you tell me your name again sometime?
