One Thing Leads To Another

The deception with tact

Just what are you trying to say?

You've got a blank face, which irritates

Communicate, pull out your party piece

You see dimensions in two

State your case with black or white

But when one little cross leads to shots, grit your teeth

You run for cover so discreet

Why don't they do what you say?

Say what you mean oh, babe

One thing leads to another

You told me something wrong

I know I listen too long but then

One thing leads to another

The impression that you sell

Passes in and out like a scent

But the long face that you see

Comes from living close to your fears

If this is up and I'm up, but your running out of sight

You've seen your name on the walls

And when one little bump leads to shock, miss a beat

You run for cover and there's heat

Why don't they do what they say?

Say what they mean

One thing leads to another

You told me something wrong

I know I listen too long but then

One thing leads to another

Yeah yeah yeah

(One thing)

(One one thing leads to another)

But it's easy to believe, somebody's been lying to me

But when the wrong word goes in the right ear

I know you've been lying to me

It's getting rough off the cuff

I've got to say enough's enough

Bigger the harder he falls

But when the wrong antidote

Is like a bulge on the throat

You run for cover in the heat

Why don't they do what the say?

Say what they mean

One thing leads to another

You tell me something wrong

I know I listen too long but then

One thing leads to another

Yeah, yeah

(One thing, one thing leads to another)

(One thing, one thing leads to another)

(One thing, one thing leads to another)

One thing leads to another

(One thing, one thing leads to another)

(One thing, one thing leads to another)

(One thing)
