Ask me why I came so late
Ask me why I made you wait
Here's a story
that you ought to know
I had a little fight,
I was dancing at a go-go
I'll tell you anything,
baby, except the truth

I'll tell you anything,
baby, except the truth
I've got nothing
but everything to prove

I only smile when I tell a lie
I swear the only one tonight

Ask me if I can be true
Ask me where I'm going to
I say I love you,
but you ought to know
I only love the night
and I always gotts to go-go
I'll tell you anything,
baby, except the truth
