lyrics

Allow me to not really make your acquaintance.
What color is the lie if it’s done for recreation?
Self-contradict with conviction.
Before long you discover truth is not stranger than fiction.
And isn’t much truer, and it comes off as hokey.
I don’t make songs to help you get to know me.
And I don’t make songs to provide you with access:
The Misinformer. Take your best bad guess.
I could say what I really think and lay my soul bare.
Not saying “would” or “wouldn’t,” I’m saying you shouldn’t care.
Ever heard the saying, “Too good to be true?”
It mean’s whatever I invent’s better than anything you could do.
Keep it real? Nah, I’d rather keep it entertaining
Than have to explain all the cause for complaining.
I’ll say what I mean and I’ll mean what I say
When I wanna make an album to bore you all away.

It’s my party, I’ll cry wolf if I want to.
Really I’m just copying and pasting links
If I was backmasking I’d say the same basic things.

It’s my party, I’ll cry wolf if I want to.
The truth sounds better when you stretch it and contort it.
Like moths to the flame, us suckers flutter toward it.

It’s my party, I’ll cry wolf if I want to.
Don’t try to tell me irony is passé.
It’ll top your teary-eyed openness any day.

It’s my party, I’ll cry wolf if I want to.
So I can like to you, and you can lie to me,
And we can call it “all in fun” and protect our privacy.
