Liar (“live at the BBC” session, 1973) Songtext
von Queen

Three, four
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Take a piece of my heart)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Take a piece of my soul)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Let me live)
Oh yeah!
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Why don′t you take another little piece of my heart?
Why don't you take it and break it and tear it all apart?
All I do is give and all you do is take
Baby, why don′t ya gimme a brand new start?

So let me live (so let me live)
Let me live (leave me alone)
Let me live (ooh) oh baby
And make a brand new start


Why don't you take another little piece of my soul?
Why don't you shape it and shake it, ′til you′re really in control?
All you do is take and all I do is give
All that I'm askin′ is a chance to live

(So let me live) so let me live
(Leave me alone), let me live, let me live
(Why don't you let me make) a brand new start?
Yeah!

And it′s a (long hard struggle), yeah-yeah
But you can always depend on me
And if you're (ever in trouble)
Hey, you know where I will be

Why don′t you take another little piece of my life?
Why don't you twist it and turn it and cut it like a knife?
All you do is live, all I do is die
Why can't we just be friends, stop livin′ a lie?

So let me live (so let me live)
Let me live (leave me alone)
Please, let me live
(Why don′t you live a little) oh yeah baby?
(Why don't you give a little love?)

Go for it, baby!


Let me live
Please, let me live
Oh, yeah baby, let me live
And make a brand new start

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Let me live (let me live)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ooh yeah (let me live)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Come on (let me live)
(Ooh-ooh)

In your heart, oh baby (take another piece, take another piece)
(Take another piece, take another piece) please, let me live
(Take another piece, take another piece)
(Take another piece, take another piece) why don′t you
(take another, take another)
(Piece of my, piece of my heart) oh yeah, baby

Make a brand new start
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby
All you do is take!
(Let me live)
(Let me live)
Oh, yeah, let me live
Let me live!
