The deception
with tact
Just what are you
tryin' to say
You've got a blank face
which irritates
Communicate
Pull out your party piece
You see dimensions
in two
State your case
with black or white
But when
one little cross
leads to shots
Grit your teeth
You run for cover
So discreet
Why don't they
Do what they say
Say what you mean
Oh baby
One thing leads to another
You told me something wrong
I know I listen too long
But then
One thing leads to another
The impression
that you sell
Passes in and out
like a scent
But the long face
that you see
Comes from living close
to your fears
If this is up
Then I'm up
But you're running
out of sight
You've seen your
name on the walls
And when one little bump
leads to shock miss a beat
You run for cover
And there's heat
Why don't they
Do what they say
Say what you mean
Oh baby
One thing leads to another
You told me
something wrong
I know I listen too long
But then
One thing leads to another
Yeah yeah yeah
One thing leads to another
Then it's easy
to believe
Somebody's been
lyin' to me
But when the wrong word
goes in the right ear
I know you've been
lyin' to me
It's getting' rough off the cuff
I've got to say
Enough's enough
Bigger the harder he falls
But when the wrong antidote
is like a bulge on the throat
You run for cover in the heat
Why don't they
Do what they say
Say what you mean
Oh baby
One thing leads to another
You tell me
something wrong
I know I listen too long
But then
One thing leads to another
Yeah yeah
One thing leads to another
One thing leads to another
One thing leads to another
One thing leads to another
