Shades of red, eyes of green  
See’s black n’ white and there’s no in between  
Ask me no questions, I’ll tell you no lies  
Still you keep thinking that it’s all alibis

And it’s hard to discover  
You’re like any other jealous lover  
And you say I’m afraid  
That you’re making no mistake,

You say you’re sorry  
For tellin’ stories  
That you know I believe are true  
You say ya got some  
Other kinda lover  
And yes, I believe you do

You’ve taken my life, so take my soul  
That’s what you said but who are we to know  
I want to be with you  
Long as you want me to  
But don’t move away  
Ain’t that what you said? Ain’t that what you said? Ain’t that what you said?  
Liar, Liar, Liar

You take such care to keep that girl’s feet clean  
Like she’s some kind of figurine  
The world’s so far below her it’s not her scene  
And so she uses you to stand between  
She walks all over you  
You know she can, she knows she can  
You’re a carpet man, you’re a carpet man

Under my thumb  
The girl who once had me down  
Under my thumb  
The girl who once pushed me around

It’s down to me  
The difference in the clothes she wears  
Down to me, the change has come,  
She’s under my thumb

Devil and the deep blue sea behind me  
Vanish in the air you’ll never find me  
I will turn your flesh to alabaster  
When you will find your servant is your master  
Ohhh, you’ll be wrapped around my finger

The wizard and the demon had a battle royale,  
The demon almost killed him with an evil kapow.  
But then he broke his tooth, and thus the demon said Ow.  
Cause it’s the Pick of Destiny child,  
you know we will be rockin’ cause it’s fuckin’ insane.

Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof  
And your shoes get so hot, you wish your tired feet were fire-proof  
Under the boardwalk  
Down by the sea, yeah  
On a blanket with my baby is where I’ll be.

Like painted kites, those days and nights - they went flyin’ by  
The world was new, beneath a blue - umbrella sky  
Then softer than, a piper man - one day it called to you  
And I lost you, i lost you to the summer wind

Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes walking  
And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ah  
When she walks, she’s like a samba that swings so cool and sways so gently  
That when she passes, each one she passes goes - aah
