The Liars Club
Glen Burtnik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Meet me tonite at the liars club
A room full of kindness, more than enough
Everyone's happy, everyone's loved
Meet me tonite at the liars club

There's a place I know
Where they treat you like Elvis
Where you're free to do whatever the hell you want to do
You can speak your mind
Or just listen to the wisdom
I know it's hard to believe
And to good to be true

There's a girl at the door
The evening hostess
She's like an open book with nothing to hide
She's gotta therapist, a hypnotist
And a cosmetic surgeon
She says when they're finished
She'll be satisfied

She'll be there to tonite at the liars club
Where words are friendly, it never gets rough
Nobody ages, everybody stays young
Meet me tonite at the liars club

In the back corner away from the window
A deal's on the table hard to refuse
This could be the big one, the chance of a lifetime
Go ahead & sign the line, you got nothing to lose

Meet me tonite at the liars club
The house of good fortune, the house of good luck
Where everyone's a winner, it's all in good fun
Meet me tonite at the liars club

And the women are beautiful
With hearts of pure gold
Their bodies are perfect
And the men are made of steel
The fixtures are shiny, groomed & manicured
And everybody comes to say exactly how they feel

So why don't you join me
For just one drink?
We'll sit by the fireplace, take a look 'round
We won't stay out late
It's not what you think
I promise I won't make a move
I'm over you by now

Meet me tonite at the liars club
A room full of kindness, more than enough




Everyone's faithful, everyone's loved
Meet me tonite at the liars club
