I see you tempt the night
I see you take a bite
You can tell me you were home

But the camera never lies

You walk out in disguise

To pull the wool over my eyes
You play me for a fool
To believe your alibis


And you can count on being safe as houses
Underestimate my eyes

But you can't argue with the image
The camera never lies


There's no distance put between us
Safe enough for you to hide
I'm watching all of your secrets

The camera never lies

I recommend first prize

For acting so surprised
For acting like you love me
The camera never lies


I'll take my wounded pride
I'll take it on the chin

Your profile fills the frame
How good you look on film


Smoke screens and sweet deceiving
Replace the face of trust
The shutter falls each time you meet him

A negative becomes my plus
