Lyrics
WHY DESERT ME - WHY DID YOU HURT ME
TREAT ME LIKE A FOOL
WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME - WHY DID YOU GRIEVE ME
AND MAKE ME FEEL UN COOL
YOU KEPT TAKING ME UP AND DOWN
TREATING ME LIKE A CIRCUS CLOWN
ALWAYS SPINNING ME ROUND AND ROUND
YOU KEPT ON TELLING ME LIES
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - YOU KEPT TELLING ME LA LA LIES
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - YOU KEPT HITTING ME BY SURPRISE
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - YOU KEPT TELLING ME LA LA LIES
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - KEPT ON TELLING ME LIES
YOU FOUND ME - YOU HUNG AROUND ME
AND THEN YOU GOT INSIDE MY HEAD
LIKE A SPIDER - KEPT ME BESIDE YA
TRAPPED INSIDE YOUR WEB
YOU KEPT TAKING ME UP AND DOWN
TREATING ME LIKE A CIRCUS CLOWN
ALWAYS SPINNING ME ROUND AND ROUND
YOU KEPT ON TELLING ME LIES
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - YOU KEPT TELLING ME LA LA LIES
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - YOU KEPT HITTING ME BY SURPRISE
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - YOU KEPT TELLING ME LA LA LIES
LA LA LIES - LA LA LIES - KEPT ON TELLING ME LIES
