  • Magpie, magpie, I stand here watching the world go by
    I wonder do you ever question why?
    I’m still here wondering what you knowing
    I’ve seen more everyday than I could dream
    I don’t mind no what I tell you
    I don’t mind no what I say
    I don’t mind no what we’re saying
    But it’s a hard hard fight
    A hard, hard fight
    And I’m turning this one in,
    I’m turning this one in
    I won’t turn back, I’ve seen the sign
    I won’t turn back not for anyone
    I’ve seen the sign, and I know what is mine

    Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like
    Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like

    You didn’t take I don’t think you mean quite what you say
    I’m hoping you’re the friend you claim to be
    Oh crow, crow, will you tell me ṗlease,
    Tell me please what you know
    You’ve seen more of the book than I could dream

    I do not know what to tell you
    I do not know what to say
    I do not know what we’re saying friend
    But it’s a hard hard fight
    A hard, hard fight
    And I’m turning this one in,
    I’m turning this one in
    I won’t turn back, I’ve seen the sign
    I won’t turn back not for anyone
    I’ve seen the sign, and I know I have faith

    Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like
    Eh what a lie, what a lie, what a lie, what a lie looks like
    Eh, eh yeah

    Silence when I won’t be here anymore
    Silence when I won’t be here anymore
    Silence when I won’t be here anymore
    Silence when I won’t be here anymore

    What a lie, what a lie, what a lie
    What a lie, what a lie, what a lie
    What a lie, what a lie, what a lie
    What a lie, what a lie, what a lie
    What a lie, what a lie, what a lie Writer/s: Elizabeth Caroline Orton, Matthew Stephen Ward
