Somebody Lied Songtext
von Eric Gales

Go to school, good grades
Got that paper, still can′t get paid
Go to work all damn day
Look at my check, took half of my pay
Mama and daddy didn't know no better
They just wanted a piece of that dream
But I know better and I′m hip to that scheme
That scheme
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Listen, tell me what's wrong with this world, man
Die for white power, I can't explain
Don′t hate the black, don′t hate the white
Don't hate the dog, just hate that bite
Mama and daddy didn′t know no better
They just wanted a piece of that dream


But I know better and I'm hip to that scheme
That scheme
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
Mama and daddy didn′t know no better
They just wanted a piece of that dream
But I know better and I'm hip to that scheme
That scheme
Don′t need money, don't need fame
Don't need no big fine car
All I need is my woman
And this here guitar
Somebody lied (somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
(Somebody, somebody, somebody lied)
