Lies
by Moon Joyce


Lies, it's all lies
Lies, it's all lies
Call it anything you want
Package it with style
But it still lies
It's all lies

Can you imagine your daughter on the page
Her womanhood betrayed at such a tender age?
You think you're able to save her from the rage
of power-starving cowards who grow up learning to crave

All those lies, lovely lies
Call it anything you want
Package it with style
But it still lies
Power lies

"It's just a magazine, a harmless pocket book
It can't be dangerous, if all I do is look
I am an adult, I have my right to buy
Anything I want to, and you've no right to try to call it

Lies, dirty lies
I say, call it anything you want
You can package it with style
Try to hide it from the kids
You mustn't let their eyes
See all the lies, pretty lies, image lies

Call it anything you want
Package it with style
But it still lies, power lies
Dirty lies.
