Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My neighbour used to tell me
That history keeps circling around
And that humans arent as wise
As we like, to brag about
The more we know, then the less we learn
These exact words, he used to say
When the truth hurts, someone will react
And usually, in a stupid way
[Chorus]
I often think about the words he said
And I maybe understand them now
Cause all I seem to hear these days are
Lies, lies-lies-lies
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da, da
[Verse 2]
My neighbor was a strong man
I am proud to have called him my friend
He looked other people in their eyes
And when challenged, he lifted his head
He stood his ground when facing wrong
And even smiled, when they lied
He faced evil with humour and jokes
And when he did, they usually cried
[Chorus]
I often think about the words he said
And I maybe understand them now
Cause all I seem to hear these days are
Lies, lies-lies-lies
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da, da
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Last week, my neighboor fell dead
He was killed by a crazy man
With a 9 milimiter, short distance shot
The bullet went straight through his head
They found him on his kitchenfloor
With a big smile, on his face
The killer was never found
Not even a single trace
[Chorus]
I often think about the words he said
And I maybe understand them now
Cause all I seem to hear these days are
Lies, lies-lies-lies
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da, da
[Outro]
Lies, lies-lies-lies
Da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da, da
