HIS LYING ARMS

HIS LYING ARMS

I used to love his tender touch
And his many, sexy charms
All those sweet nothings
In his lying arms.

He told me that he loved me
That he was a single man
I believed every word he said
Like he was a one-man-band.

But lying in his lying arms
I had to face the truth
He was just another man
Who lacked grace and couth.

There was another woman
He told the same lies to
When she & I compared notes
We knew just what to do.

We both arranged to meet him
At a restaurant in town
Where we ordered up in style
And closed the whole Club down.

The bill came to many hundreds
And the tip was even more
'Cause when it came time to leave
We both went out the door.

Alone and drunk and nearly broke
He had to walk on home
And with-in his own lying arms
He must have felt all alone.

She and I are now best friends
And we are oh-so-proud
That when we see him in our town
We point & laugh out loud.

Lying in his lying arms
We came to see the light
A two-timing cheating man
Never wins the fight!

So if you see him coming 'round
Sound the false alarm
Don't make the same mistake
In his lying arms!
