I crumple the note
(Shoe box)
(Shoe box)
And it's nineteen ninety four
Shoe box
My shoe box of lies
Leave this world behind me
It's in with my school stuff
That's making me think
I can tell you I'm sorry
And my mom never cleans there
A note on the table
Shoe box of lies
That I should never have come here?
When talk turns to
Did somebody tell you
My shoe box of lies
From my first little fib
Or did you just find it
And a meal in the micro
Please make sure that you're fed
But I can't tell the truth, dear
I can offer you lies
Single malts or Stilton or
You'll still never get
Who's not seventeen
If you're taking a shower
It's never been read
And you don't want any more from me?
(Shoe box)
When I'm asleep
I dream, you move in next week'
When I still wore a bib
This is how it's supposed to be
Shoe box
You can borrow my bathrobe
I can tell you goodbye
To see the contents of
And what if I could
My shoe box
(Shoe box)
It's under my bed
Or was it something you read
To my latest attempt
Note says, 'I'm in bed
And doesn't know what you mean
My shoe box
You're so nineteen ninety
'Cause you don't want me anymore
Was it something I said
My shoe box of lies
And save it to put inside
At pretending I'm someone
(Shoe box)
Shoe box of lies
Lie, lie, lie, lie
My shoe box
Would it do any good?
Lie, lie, lie
