There's only 24 hours in a day
And half as many ways for you to lie to me, my little love
There's only 24 hours in a day

And half of those, you lay awake
With thoughts of murder and carnage


If you lie down with dogs, then you'll get fleas
Be careful of the company you keep


There's only 24 hours
And that's not enough
To lie like you lie or

Love like you love

There's only 24 hours in a day

And half of those you lay
Between the sheets with me, my lying love
There's only 24 hours, so you'd say

For most of them you pay
For all the things they paid you for, my love


If you lie down with dogs, then you'll get fleas
Be careful of the ones you choose to leave


There's only 24 hours
And that's not enough
To lie like you lie or

Love like you love

Give me your heat

Give me your diamonds
You hit that street
And my crooked lust

You count to three
While they're all dying
You're hard to reach

You're cold to touch
