The Fall

The Fall are an English post-punk band, formed in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, in 1976. With an ever-changing line up, the group essentially consists of its founder and only constant member, Mark E. Smith, who has said "If it's me and your granny on bongos, then it's [the] Fall". First associated with the late 1970s punk movement, the band's music has evolved through numerous stylistic changes, often concurrently with changes in the group's membership. The Fall's music is characterised by repetition, an abrasive guitar-driven sound, and is always underpinned by Smith's often cryptic lyrics, described by critic Steve Huey as "abstract poetry filled with complicated wordplay, bone-dry wit, cutting social observations, and general misanthropy." more »

Keep reading me the book of lies
Keep reading me the book of lies

And you keep giving me
And you keep reading me
The book of lies
The book of lies
You keep telling me the book of lies
Book of lies

I don't like what I'm doing to you
You don't like what you're doing to me
Don't make me cry
The book of lies
The book of lies

You don't listen to anything I say
Or do anything you promised to do
So why should I?
The book of lies

You don't listen to anything I say
Or do anything you promised to say
Listen to
Subject to
The book of lies

You keep reading me the book of lies
