Lyrics

I always lie to strangers I always lie to people I may know There'll be no church bells chiming for me No contest is my only plea Call me anything you like I would never disagree I always lie to strangers I've never taken the high road home The old low road seems to get me there fast High or low, it's all the same Living by your world is a sucker's game And I'm used to taking all the blame Can't bother taking that high road home And I always lie to strangers I always lie to strangers I am a man of low degree This world is run by men Much more crooked than me And as far as I can see I don't trust you And you shouldn't trust me I always lie to strangers Because I always lie to strangers
