Don't bruise my head, leave me for dead,
My work is never done,
I crawled through grass, 'cross broken glass, to bring you kingdom come,
I'll swing you high up in your favorite tree,
Attach my good name to your history and mix my blood into our chemistry,
Don't be shy, tell me...

Why would I lie to you'
Why would I lie to you'
Baby I'd die for you,
Would I ever'
No, I'd never speak pretty little lies to you.

I've heard you've got a tender spot for sweet talk and tattooed men,
If I'm too much,
Cold to the touch,
There's fire beneath my skin,
I'm only here to make you wealthy and wise,
Remove the scales from your sweet, innocent eyes,
And then you'll be in for my big surprise,
No, don't be shy, tell me...

Why would I lie to you' (speak pretty little lies to you)
Why would I lie to you' (speak pretty little lies to you)
Baby I'd die for you, (they're pretty, but they're still not true)
Would I ever'
No, I'd never speak pretty little lies to you.

Don't mind the forked tongue,
If I rattle you, I'm sorry,
Though I'm not yet your number one, for the time being that's not a worry.

I'll swing you high up in your favorite tree,
Attach my good name to your history and mix my blood into our chemistry,
Don't be shy, tell me...

Why would I lie to you' (speak pretty little lies to you)
Why would I lie to you' (speak pretty little lies to you)
Baby I'd die for you, (they're pretty, but they're still not true)
Would I ever'
No, I'd never speak pretty little lies to you.
