Song | Shandy (The Perfect Disguise) |
Artist | Kris Kristofferson |
Album | Spooky Lady's Sideshow |
作词 : Kristofferson | |
Shandy was somebody's daughter | |
Driving to something insane | |
They busted her crossing the border | |
Quick as a sniff of cocaine | |
All she could pay was attention | |
So all they could take was her time | |
Proving an ounce of possession | |
Ain't worth a piece of your mind. | |
Chorus: | |
'cause nightmares are somebody's daydreams | |
Daydreams are somebody's lies. | |
Lies ain't no harder than telling the truth. | |
Truth is the perfect disguise | |
Locked in the goldhandle bathroom | |
Martin was changing his mind | |
Shedding his humble pretensions | |
One careful toke at a time | |
And wiping the mask off the man in the mirror | |
Who really was billy the kid | |
Smiling at somebody dying | |
For something that he never did | |
Chorus: | |
'cause nightmares are somebody's daydreams | |
Daydreams are somebody's lies. | |
Lies ain't no harder than telling the truth. | |
Truth is the perfect disguise | |
As soon as he sat down beside her | |
Shining like saturday night | |
Shandy was his for the saving | |
Sweet as she looked in the light | |
And maybe they moved from the bar to the bedroom | |
Maybe just stood there instead | |
Martin woke up wet and screaming | |
Dreaming of blood on the bed. | |
Chorus: | |
'cause nightmares are somebody's daydreams | |
Daydreams are somebody's lies. | |
Lies ain't no harder than telling the truth. | |
Truth is the perfect disguise |
