Lies in Black & White - The Jayhawks

Picked up the afternoon paper

And went leafing through the local news

When I

Saw all the false accusations

About the situation

We allegedly had been through

Those lies, lies in black and white

Then I tuned into the station

And I listen to

My favourite DJ play

He spoke of rumours and opinions

As the backlash grew

All they thought they knew were lies

Lies in black and white

Theres two sides to every coin

Keep telling yours you just might begin to believe it

You’re laboring in the vacuum

I never felt at ease with you in the room

You’re still squeezing the very last drop of juice

From the rotting fruit

While all you spew are lies

Lies in black and white

Theres two sides to every coin

Keep telling yours you just might begin to believe it

Harmonica solo

Theres two sides to every coin

Keep telling yours you just might begin to believe it

I see a man in a whisper

Your words are twisted bitter

You dupliticious quitter

You once said

«You'd make a pretty good Christian»

I laughed

«How would you know?»

With your hate in tow

And your lies

Lies in black and white

Lies in black and white
