*This song is about lying and cheating boyfriends that we shall call Troy. It is entirely fictional and is not meant to depict any actual persons or events.

I plan on re-recording this, but my microphone or cable just stopped working so I need to fix that.

This is a really rough draft. I made it under quite bad circumstances (dying or half broken equipment in a foreign country in a dying and half broken apartment). But I really like this song (I tend to like my stuff a bit unhealthily too much) and I really love its ironic dry humour. I would love to see it accompanied with instruments that emphasize its meaning.

I also think it has a good theme for a video but I know better than to get too excited about all that can be done! On second thought, I don't really know that much better...

Anyway, please help me if you feel this song and wish contribute. Thanks!

LYRICS:

Rock-a-by baby
You sit here before me
And swear you never did those things

Well, I love you darling
It's such a funny thing
Because I look into your eyes
And all I see is
Lies

I'M NOT A FOOL FOR SCHOOL BOYS
I TEND TO KNOW A THING OR TWO ABOUT YOU, TROY
AND ONE MAIN THING I AM SURE OF IS THAT
YOU'D BETTER TRY
SELLING THIS LIE
TO SOMEONE WHO MIGHT
BELIEVE YA

You have this smile
That charms for a while
But smiles and charms grow old and dull

Your sweet sweet talk
And your fancy walk
Cannot erase the obvious fact
You're as real as your fat act

I'M NOT A FOOL FOR SCHOOL BOYS
I TEND TO KNOW A THING OR TWO ABOUT YOU, TROY
AND ONE MAIN THING I AM SURE OF IS THAT
YOU'D BETTER TRY
SELLING THIS LIE
TO SOMEONE WHO MIGHT
BELIEVE YA

What, was I born yesterday?
Or read about one too many
sparkling vampire romance novels?
I am not a sucker for testosterone and pretty faces
I happen to be an HJNTIY* girl
And I use my brain

I'M NOT A FOOL FOR SCHOOL BOYS
I TEND TO KNOW A THING OR TWO ABOUT YOU, TROY
AND ONE MAIN THING I AM SURE OF IS THAT
YOU'D BETTER TRY
SELLING THIS LIE
TO SOMEONE WHO MIGHT
BELIEVE YA

And if you find no one to believe you
Then shove it up your... mmm. :)
