Alibi (Album Version)
Photographic memories
Scanners on our love affair
Like we were the L A Times
The headlines read 'Beware'
I don't deal in hearsay
Calculation ain't my game
But today I see you and I hang my head in shame
Lipstick on your collar
And the color isn't mine
White lines on the dresser
And you even drank my wine
Babe your face is flushed
It's more than just a hunch
Tell me what's this fear
Maybe she's still here
Baby you're an alibi
You cross your heart and hope to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby you're an alibi
Looking out the window
I can hear an engine roar
Cobalt Blue Pantera dashes through the garage door
Now you cry injustice and synthetic violins
Every night outside my door
A candle in the wind
Lipstick on your collar
And the color isn't mine
White lines on the dresser
And you even drank my wine
Babe your face is flushed
It's more than just a hunch
Tell me what's this fear
Maybe the picture is clear
Baby you're an alibi
You cross your heart and hope to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby you're an alibi
Ooh ah baby ooh ah alibi
Ooh ah baby ooh ah alibi
Lipstick on your collar
And the color isn't mine
White lines on the dresser
And you even drank my wine
Babe your face is flushed
It's more than just a hunch
Tell me what's this fear
Maybe the end is near
Alibi you crossed your heart and hoped to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby you're just an alibi
(Incomprehensible)
Alibi you crossed your heart and hoped to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby you're just an alibi
You're just an just an just an just an
Alibi you crossed your heart and hoped to die
Promising to tell no lies
Baby you're just an alibi
I flash back to another time zone
When you were late most every night
I was a prisoner by my own device
And what about your distant cousin
You know the one that lives in France
No introduction only a harlequin romance
Ooh alibi
(Love lines angles and rhymes)
Alibis you crossed your heart and hoped to die
Baby baby baby baby baby
Alibis you're gonna hurt me baby alibi
