Lies (Reissue) - King Diamond

Yesterday I spent an hour

A full hour in therapy

My favourite Doctor Landau

My God I hate his breath

He asked me questions

That kind of fool deserves a lie

I gave him answers

The kind of answers Doctor like

Yes, I gave him a bunch of lies

I told him all My nightmares

Were dead and gone

«These days I sleep like a baby

And there never ever was a «THEM»

He asked me questions

That kind of fool deserves a lie

I gave him answers

The kind of answers Doctors like

Guitar solo ANDY

The Doctor looked at My eyes

Landau: «No trace of insanity

Maybe the time is right now

To have a visit from the family

I’m thinking of Your Mother

What does My little patient say?»

I should have taken his stethoscope

And then forced it down his throat

My Mother was at stake

So I behaved

Guitar solo PETE

That night I cleaned the entire house

For everything but the memories

No dust, no tea, ah stupid me

I even took the axe away

The sun is up and it’s time for bed

I’m so tired

I can’t wait no more
