  • There's only 24 hours in a day
    And half as many ways for you to lie to me, my little love
    There's only 24 hours in a day
    And half of those, you lay awake
    With thoughts of murder and carnage

    If you lie down with dogs, then you'll get fleas
    Be careful of the company you keep

    There's only 24 hours
    And that's not enough
    To lie like you lie
    Or love like you love

    There's only 24 hours in a day
    And half of those you lay
    Between the sheets with me, my lying love
    There's only 24 hours, so you'd say
    For most of them you pay
    For all the things they paid you for, my love

    If you lie down with dogs, then you'll get fleas
    Be careful of the ones you choose to leave

    There's only 24 hours
    And that's not enough
    To lie like you lie
    Or love like you love

    Give me your heat
    Give me your diamonds
    You hit that street
    And my crooked lust
    You count to three
    While they're all dying
    You're hard to reach
    You're cold to touch Writer/s: ELIZABETH GRANT, RICK NOWELS
