lyrics

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU

These are the news of the morning
Here is the last information
I cannot resist, I cannot avoid
I don’t believe you.

Claire has a place in the old part of town
She’s always a catcher of a spotlighted round
You won’t be lonely, if you follow her scene
I don’t believe you.

You’re sendin’ a note that you’re broken
Send me a sign that you’re feeling alright
Somebody misses you and somebody can’t
and I can’t believe you.

Nikki Devitte with your modernist charm
You wrote your thesis on Mongolian farms
Your studies were changing the course of your life
But I don’t believe you.

Standin’ alone on the side of the quay
Wavin’ goodbye to your hero
Well now it’s too late, you had nothing to say
I don’t believe you.

You came unexpected from your round-the-world-flight
You came like a joke, but so serious and tight
For so many years you were out of sight
Now I don’t believe you.

Sarah the cook, you’re the winner today
Sooner or later you’ll be fadin’ away
It’s true you made an incredible cake
But I don’t believe you.
Public and private spaces of art
Wolves and sheep and their hidden desires
Now come a bit closer, explain me your part
I don’t believe you.

Two guys in a hurry on a thundering bike
They feel so hungry in this film version night
You say that nobody’s free or true
I don’t believe you.

You walk really fast on your politics trail
Is this the reason why diplomacy fails?
Your wavering speech won’t be ever sufficient
I don’t believe you.

Peter the Filth, your opinion is asked.
Why don’t you come out of your vacuous mask?
Excuse me, but there is nothing new!
I don’t believe you.

When is the start of our losing faith?
When is the end of our patience?
You’re hiding a secret, there is nothing to hide.
I don’t believe you.

The wedding is over, the groom disappeared
Somebody’s asking, if he’s ever been here
Just days before, he was nothing but worried
I don’t believe you.

Another example of our falling apart
Another example of a broken heart
You better beware of awareness signs
I don’t believe you.
