| [00:07.255] |
I mean it’s less like actually lying |
| [00:09.908][Right] |
|
| [00:11.413] |
It’s more like being select |
| [00:13.374][Yes] |
|
| [00:14.872] |
It’s all a matter of trying to protect the innocent, right? |
| [00:20.812][Right] |
|
| [00:22.039] |
It’s not as if you’re intending to make them out to be fools |
| [00:28.982] |
All I’m proposing is bending those tight parental rules |
| [00:36.732][And that’s a job which calls for special tools] |
|
| [00:43.479] |
You bend it, bend it |
| [00:46.461] |
Truth can take it |
| [00:47.725] |
Bend it, bend it |
| [00:49.687] |
Learn to fake it |
| [00:51.671] |
Don’t say I snogged my dishy coach |
| [00:57.295] |
Adopt a more discrete approach |
| [01:01.552] |
It’s all about the way you phrase it |
| [01:05.918] |
Don’t twist the truth just fail to raise it |
| [01:09.267] |
Think less in black and white |
| [01:12.015] |
And more in grey |
| [01:16.637] |
So keep a check on what you say |
| [01:19.927] |
And be prepared to meet halfway |
| [01:23.485] |
And if it’s deftly done then everyone stays friends |
| [01:31.609] |
When everything, everything bends |
| [01:38.782] |
[Okay, it’s not a question of hiding /no/ |
| [01:42.338] |
It’s how the facts are expressed. /right/ |
| [01:45.697] |
So really what we’re deciding is what’s best for everyone, yes? /yes/} |
| [01:52.535] |
If certain facts are unspoken |
| [01:56.357][Then no one needs to invent] |
|
| [02:00.008] |
The rules ain’t there to be broken |
| [02:03.451][Just maybe slightly bent] |
|
| [02:07.283] |
The object is to throw them off the scent |
| [02:12.511] |
So what can we be less revealing |
| [02:16.661] |
Acquire the art of neat concealing |
| [02:20.192] |
Don’t say your tastes incline to men |
| [02:26.193] |
Say, ‘Have you met my flatmate Sven?’ |
| [02:30.716] |
It’s not about misrepresenting |
| [02:34.399] |
It’s more a case of reinventing |
| [02:38.110] |
It’s not the hand you’re dealt |
| [02:41.257] |
It’s what you play |
| [02:45.382] |
If you can vet what you convey |
| [02:49.027] |
Then with a little luck you may by using make-believe |
| [02:55.295] |
Deceive, achieve your aims |
| [03:00.619] |
When everything, everything bends |
| [03:08.366] |
Trouble is they think we’re perfect |
| [03:11.849] |
Trouble is we so are not |
| [03:15.361] |
Trouble is they must know something |
| [03:18.935] |
Trouble is deciding what |
| [03:24.050] |
So bend it, bend it |
| [03:26.160] |
Keep them guessing |
| [03:28.019] |
A tiny lie can be oppressing |
| [03:31.379] |
But whatever one intends |
| [03:37.064] |
Remember everything and everyone bends |
| [03:44.082] |
Remember everything and everyone bends |
