Paid to Lie
Juliana Hatfield
Get on the party bus
Faking a good time
Suffer the little people
All the way to the end of the line
You can call a spade a knife
But anyone can see you're paid to lie
The rich get richer
And the sick get sicker
There's so much to be denied
The checks get bigger
And the tricks get cheaper
Now you're messing with the gaslight
What did you see
And what did you sign
You can call a spade a knife
But anyone can see you're paid to lie
On and on and on the con you run
Altering history
Making it all so hard to believe
You can call a spade a knife
But true is true and you lie
