You come on strong with a great big smile

But your teeth are as sharp as a crocodile

You promised me the moon and the stars and the sun

But you never did nothin' for anyone Can't look me in the face or straight in the eye

I'd buy the movie rights to your alibi

I wonder how long you will go

I wonder how high your head will blow You're a psychopathic liar

Your soul is on fire

You're bluffin' with nothin'

While the stakes are gettin' higher Why trust you

You never made a dream come true

Why trust you

Give me one good reason, one good reason why You come to me all teary-eyed

With your big tall tale way up in the sky

Begging on your knees for another chance

But everybody knows that's a song and a dance There used to be a time when you were the best

You had the fastest tongue in the west

You gave a look and a line like nobody else

You'd try to sell the Bible to the Devil, himself You sadistic little liar

You're walkin' on the wire

You're bluffin' up with nothin'

And the bills are gettin' higher Why trust you

You never made a dream come true

Why trust you

Give me one good reason, one good reason why

Trust you The noose is getting tighter

Your face is turning whiter

You can stuff it up your muffin'

And go stick it in the fire Why trust you

You never made a dream come true

Why trust you, give me one good reason

One good reason Why trust you

You never made a dream come true

Why trust you, give me one good reason

One good reason Why trust you, why trust you

Why trust you, why trust you

Why trust you
