She Wouldn't Like
Having been involved in the 'entertainment' industry for quite a while, I have become accustomed to a certain amount of exaggeration and liberty taking with the truth. This can add to the entertainment value of the conversation although, and this is the reason for the song, a friend of mine intensely dislikes untruths of any form. I'm trying to show that life isn't black and white and truth and lies are in the eyes of the beholder.

Wunschliste
The joker was wearing a mask
And he kept his hands in his sleeves
Government secrets were copied by no one
Kept for no one to see
A face in a camera that smiles to the crowd,
But snarls at his own epitaph
Chameleon handshakes that slap round the face
She couldn’t follow that path
She wouldn’t like
All the pretence and lies
The veil of deceit
She had come to despise
She wouldn’t like
Using lies to decide
The dismissive sighs
She wants it clear and concise
She wouldn’t like
A clown with his falsehoods and made-up despair
Was begging the priest for a laugh
He prayed on the goodness of innocent souls
‘Til their goodness had broken his heart
She’d like the world to be simple and plain
There’s no need for success
You toasted her dreams, drank to her hopes
But you drank to excess
She wouldn’t like
Pulling wool over eyes
The veil of deceit
She had come to despise
She wouldn’t like
The laughter of spies
All the crocodile tears
That have been televised
She wouldn’t like
All the pretence and lies
The veil of deceit
She had come to despise
She wouldn’t like
The laughter of spies
All the crocodile tears
That have been televised
