Michael Penn - All That That Implies
Filibust and hesitate
You say I procrastinate
And that my heart beat's second rate
To one you'll recognize
I know that you are drawn to it
So all I am is counterfeit
It pulls you so you must submit
Like ant to honeydew
What I once took as remedies
Are only chalk hypotheses
'Tis the season for a breeze
To blow them all away
To add insult to injury
The sum you get means I agree
So you can call that empathy
And find someone else to blame
You say it's truth and nothing but
Baby, I sympathize
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
They're lies, surprise, surprise
Take this heart and claim a stake
Shove it through so I can't wake
The cock will crow, the day will break
But I won't be around
And it may be the kindest cut
Word comes in edgewise
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
They're lies, surprise, surprise
You say I procrastinate
And that my heart beat's second rate
To one you'll recognize
I know that you are drawn to it
So all I am is counterfeit
It pulls you so you must submit
Like ant to honeydew
What I once took as remedies
Are only chalk hypotheses
'Tis the season for a breeze
To blow them all away
To add insult to injury
The sum you get means I agree
So you can call that empathy
And find someone else to blame
You say it's truth and nothing but
Baby, I sympathize
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
They're lies, surprise, surprise
Take this heart and claim a stake
Shove it through so I can't wake
The cock will crow, the day will break
But I won't be around
And it may be the kindest cut
Word comes in edgewise
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
All that that implies are lies
Surprise, surprise
They're lies, surprise, surprise
