On The Life — Goo Goo Dolls

He burnt down the house one night Нe had a loaded six-pack gun

He said that Jesus Christ was just like a cop

You know, you never know when they'll come

She said every day above ground Was another dream come true He said I'd hang and swap clichйs all night But I'm not in love with you

And I never got serious 'Til everything went black

And I ain't so curious

That I'm ever going back

On the lie On the lie On the lie On the lie

(verse) He said, man, you want to be Elvis I said I ain't dying face down He said you've got to die facing up in the world 'Cause there's too many holes around

(verse) He asked what was wrong with me He said I looked like a Hollywood girl I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man 'Cause it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world

(bridge) And I never got serious 'Til everything went black And I ain't so curious That I'm ever going back

(chorus) On the lie On the lie On the lie On the lie

(chorus) On the lie, he was On the lie On the lie, she was On the lie On the lie, he was On the lie
