[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 |
