Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's only twenty-four hours in a day And half as many ways for you to lie to me, my little love There's only twenty-four hours in a day And half of those, you lay awake With thoughts of murder and carnage [Pre-Chorus] If you lie down with dogs, then you'll get fleas Be careful of the company you keep [Chorus] There's only twenty-four hours And that's not enough To lie like you lie Or love like you love [Post-Chorus] Hmm, hmm Hmm, hmm [Verse 2] There's only twenty-four hours in a day And half of those you lay Between the sheets with me, my lying love There's only twenty-four hours, so you'd say For most of them you pay For all the things they paid you for, my love [Pre-Chorus] If you lie down with dogs, then you'll get fleas Be careful of the ones you choose to leave [Chorus] There's only twenty-four hours And that's not enough To lie like you lie Or love like you love [Post-Chorus] Hmm, hmm Hmm, hmm [Bridge] Give me your heat Give me your diamonds You hit that street And my crooked words You count to three While they're all dying You're hard to reach You're cold to touch [Outro] La-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-di-da-da-da
