Let Us Lie

Let us now praise the loathsome
Let us drag down the good
Let us spit upon virtue
Because we say you should

Let us now create victims
Let us scheme and connive
Let us deconstruct truth
And learn to love lies

Let us lie, let us lie, let us lie
Let us lie, there is freedom in lies

Let's pretend all is equal
Let's assume that we know
Let's debase all that's sacred
And see how low we can go
See how low we can go
And learn to love lies
Let us lie

Let us lie, let us lie, let us lie
Let us lie, there is freedom in lies

Let us now praise the loathsome
Let us drag down the good
Let us spit upon virtue
Because we say you should

Let us lie, let us lie, let us lie
Let us lie, there is freedom in lies

Suck City (Say Goodbye Again)

I'm no longer pretty
I was but did not know
On a long slow slide
And I die inside
Suck City

Say goodbye again
The same way that it's always been
That same old pain from way back when
The closing door again

Existing, existing, nothing but existing
Since the one that got away
And time marched on
And I'm singin' this song
Suck City

bridge:
Suck City sucks hind...quarters

Take it away Leon! (hendrix solo, maybe on pedal steel or dobro or fiddle or mando)

I still get up in the morning
Keep on keepin' on
But for what or for who
I can't really say
Suck City

Say goodbye again
The same way that it's always been
That same old pain from way back when
The closing door again

The same old story
Written way back when
Was in love when
I should not have been

In like a cool breeze
Then gone with the wind
