Electric Lizard Lyrics

She told me always look up
But I can't stop looking down
The rungs of the ladder
To all of the loves I've lost
Or stepped upon and found
Calling my mother
Calling my father
Calling my sister
Calling my brother
Calling my lover, he only wants to
Use me for cover
Use me for cover

Pretty people, my ears and my eyes
Electric lizard, catching the flies
Off the walls of this Honky Tonk, my disguise
Is only as good as my fucking lies
My fucking lies
My fucking lies
My fucking lies

Bit the bullet, I bit it so I
Could chew on the shrapnel, and to decide
Where my soul and spirit reside
If it's not with you, darling, I might as well die
My fucking lies
My fucking lies
My fucking lies

There in the bathroom, hair in her eyes
Electric lizard, catching the flies
Off the walls of this Honky Tonk, my disguise
Is only as good as my fucking lies
Calling my lover, calling my brother
Calling my sister, calling my brother
Calling my lover, he only wants to
Use me for cover
