You raised a fist in the air,ngave the briefest sideways glare…nThen smiled with crooked teeth.nYou claimed you had the proof,nyou swore it was the truth…nBut I know better.nFrom the wings strung fishline,nsilent trap doors and pulleys.nYour sleight of hand feat.nBig surprise!nBut I play the easy mark well,nso I sat there in the dark.nWatching you tell neon lies.nnAll my life I’ve been noticing rubber knives,nexpensive dentistry.nAll my life I’ve been noticing safety lines,ntrap doors and dummy feet.nYou’re not fooling me.nnTell your lies.nTell your lies.
