stringin' a line

he says he's your friend

but you don't see him

he says he's so damn busy but he don't do nothin' at all

so you get him on the phone

he was just gonna to call you

says he was thinking about old times

and lookin' at your picture on the wall

he's stringin' you the same old lines

he puts everyone through

they're only lies

intentions just won't do

for the time he feels no wrong

til he finds out we've caught on

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line

so you try to forget

but that ain't so easy

if you've got one small doubt

that there was ever anything there

so you dangle on a line

a captive fool

you know you'll try again

but it'll just be the same as last time

he's stringin' you the same old lines

he puts everyone through

they're only lies

intentions just won't do

for the time he feels no wrong

til he finds out we've caught on

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' you the same old lines

he puts everyone through

they're only lies

intentions just won't do

for the time he feels no wrong

til he finds out we've caught on

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line

he's stringin' a line
