Melody Lie

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Melody too smart and conniving You must never, never believe him Melody too smart and conniving You must never, never believe him Look, he borrowed some money from me To send for his girl in [?] She buy clothes to fill a basket Now to pay me back he say they pick he pocket But he lie! [Chorus] I want me money by tomorrow Don't think you have [?], Sparrow Melo, no pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket You mustn't lie! No pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket [Verse 2] Walk about the city and find out Melo name in people mouth Borrow money from everybody And that is including me To pay back Melo wouldn't pay Find him [?] Meet him somewhere down the street Just to hear how broke so long he ain't eat But that's a lie! [Chorus] I want me money by tomorrow Don't think you have [?], Sparrow Melo, no pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket You mustn't lie! No pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket [Verse 3] When we come back here from Curaçao I said, "Pay me! Pay me, Melo! I don't like to let people owe me" He say, "I have cash." I say, "Well, show me." He pulled out one big fat wallet So much hundred dollar bill No wonder the man in Curaçao got killed [Chorus] I want me money by tomorrow Don't think you have [?], Sparrow Melo, no pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket You mustn't lie! No pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket [Verse 4] Seven-hundred bucks he say lose I was so confused Melody, I make [?] In Aruba, on Curaçao And although it is my belief I can't call the [?] a thief So the sergeant just put in his stuff And [?] thief from thief make God laugh That I know, no lie [Chorus] I want me money by tomorrow Don't think you have [?], Sparrow Melo, no pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket You mustn't lie! No pickpocket would ever try to pick An ex-pickpocket pocket
