 Jive-Talkin' Blues

[Verse]

You're spinning tales

Oh what a ride

A circus act

You can't confide

Your words are slick

Your charm's a tool

But honey

I'm no jive-talkin' fool

[Chorus]

Oh your jive-talkin'

It’s twistin’ my mind

Sweet sugar-coated

But bitter inside

Oh your jive-talkin’

It’s breaking my trust

Keep it up

Babe

And this love will combust

[Verse 2]

You say the stars are made of gold

A pretty picture

A story bold

But I see cracks

The truth leaks through

The mirror’s fogged

But I see you

[Chorus]

Oh your jive-talkin'

It’s twistin’ my mind

Sweet sugar-coated

But bitter inside

Oh your jive-talkin’

It’s breaking my trust

Keep it up

Babe

And this love will combust

[Bridge]

Lies like whispers

They tickle the air

But the echo lingers

It’s hard to bear

Your pretty words

They crumble and fall

Truth stands taller

Outshines it all

[Chorus]

Oh your jive-talkin'

It’s twistin’ my mind

Sweet sugar-coated

But bitter inside

Oh your jive-talkin’

It’s breaking my trust

Keep it up

Babe

And this love will combust
