Well we don't want to hear tall stories
About all those people
You say that you've met
About the great stuff you've got
Or what you used to have
Or those things that you're going to get
We don't need to dazzled, astounded
Shocked or impressed
Amazed or hypnotized
Sit down have a drink
And stop reading aloud
From that book of lies
Friendship lives
And friendship dies
It's you we love
It's not your book of lies
We don't want to hear about your adventures
In all those places
You say that you've been
About those crazy things
You said you've done
Or those amazing things you've seen
You don't need to dress your life up
In this ludicrous disguise
Sit down have a drink
And stop reading aloud
From that book of lies
Friendship lives
And friendship dies
It's you we love
It's not your book of lies
