Blue Rodeo - Nice Try lyrics

rate me

Well the best defense <br />

Is the bright lights<br />

Underneath which<br />

You commit that dark crime<br />

Look, I was there<br />

I watched it all go down<br />

And I still can't believe my eyes<br />

Nice try, it's so wild<br />

Nice try, it's so wild<br />

<br />

It's like a car burning<br />

On the side of the road<br />

Well, someone got torched<br />

For not doing what they're told<br />

It's like a plaid vacation<br />

When they change your name<br />

It's like yesterday's news <br />

Is the same again and again and again<br />

It's so wild<br />

Again and again<br />

It's so wild<br />

<br />

~ Solo ~<br />

<br />

So when you dish the dirt<br />

You might as well dish the worst<br />

'Cause no one expects you<br />

To tell the truth<br />

And when they turn around<br />

They think that something must be wrong<br />

'Cause no one<br />

Could make up a story so far gone<br />

It's so wild<br />

So far gone<br />

It's so wild<br />

<br />

Fact or fiction, all parties deny<br />

Any involvement<br />

At the scene of the crime<br />

They look you cold straight in the eye<br />

And say, "Man<br />

You got the wrong guy, but nice try"<br />

It's so wild<br />

Nice try<br />

It's so wild
