The song originally appeared as a bonus track on the Japanese edition of Nimrod and is a B-side to Good Riddance. The song is about someone who constantly lies.
[Verse 1]
You got a problem you just can't hide
Compulsive habits that never seem to die
Your breath is taking up all the air
Your teeth are rotting to black holes in your head
[Chorus]
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied
[Verse 2]
Your mother allowed you just one white lie
But now she's dead and she left you with a problem
Pinocchio has pierced your tongue
Your nose is growing into the third dimension
[Chorus]
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied (Uh, you lied)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Well reality is due
What you say just can't be true
When the story's stretched and so far fetched
That you're lacking an excuse, you lied
You Lied was written by Billie Joe Armstrong & Mike Dirnt & Tré Cool.
