"Stringin' a line"

He says he's your friend...
but you don't see him.
He says that he's so damn busy
but he don't do nothing at all.
You get him on the phone,
he was just gonna call you.
Say's he's been thinkin' about old times
and lookin' at your picture on the wall.

He's stringin' you the same old lines
that he puts everyone through.
They're only lies...
Intentions just won't do.

At times 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.
'Cause if you've got one small doubt
there was never anything there.
You dangle on a line...
a captive fool.

Well you know he'll try again...
and it will be just the same as last time.

He's stringin' you the same old lines
that he puts everyone through.
They're only lies...
Intentions just won't do.
Oh, time it feels no wrong
'til he finds out we've caught on...
He's stringin' a line.
He's stringin' a line.

He's stringin' you the same old lines
that he puts everyone through.
They're only lies...
Intentions just won't do.

For time it feels no wrong
'til he finds out we've caught on...
He's stringin' a line.
Stringin' a line.
Stringin' a line.
