Les enfants qui mentent ne vont pas au paradis
{Children who lie do not go 2 paradise}
OK... merci {OK, thank U}

When lie awake N my boudoir
think of U, dear
Do U think of me?
Or do U lie, do U lie?

When 'm N a sad & lonely mood, dear
cry 4 U, dear
Do U cry 4 me?
Do U cry, do U cry?

When need some1 2 talk 2
U'r not around
When need another human's touch
wear a frown cuz U'r uptown
Going down, going down, going down

don't lie, dear ( had 2 lie)
When say that 'm N love, mama (Mama, mama)
feel so good when U'r near (Mama, mama)
Tell me, do U feel it 2?
Or do U lie, do U lie?

Or do U cry from the inside out, dear
Or R they only artificial tears?
Do U really mean it when U cry, when U cry, when U cry?

When need some1 2 talk 2 (Do U lie?)
U'r not around, U'r not around ( wear a frown)
When need another human touch (Tell me Y)
wear a frown cuz U'r uptown
(Tell me Y U wanna go & leave me all alone)
Going down, going down, going down
Going down, going down, going down
Going down, going down, down

When lie awake N my boudoir ( think of U)
think of U, dear (Do U?)
Do U think of me?
Or do U lie, do U lie?
