A Way With Words

The Proclaimers

    Continues after the ad

    The sentence I threw up
    Into a paper cup
    Was such a sickly pup
    When it died

    I'd tried and failed to muster
    The words to bring some luster
    To thoughts that now we're dust-er
    So I sighed

    Well a way with words
    Is something to which I would aspire
    Though a way with words
    Is usually the first sign of a liar

    The captivating calls
    The verbal golden balls
    The memory recalls
    With alarm

    Continues after the ad

    How as you peeled the bandage
    From round the easy language
    You really saw the damage
    Done by charm

    Well a way with words
    Is something to which I would aspire
    Though a way with words
    Is usually the first sign of a liar

    Oh-oh, oh-oh
    Oh-oh, ooh

    The sentence I threw up
    Into a paper cup
    Was such a sickly pup
    When it died

    I'd tried and failed to muster
    The words to bring some luster
    To thoughts that now we're dust-er
    So I sighed

    Well a way with words
    Is something to which I would aspire
    Though a way with words
    Is usually the first sign of a liar

    Yes a way with words
    Is something to which I would aspire
    Though a way with words
    Is usually the first sign of a liar
    Liar, liar, liar
