I am fed up with your lies
You say being at war is nice
You say being a soldier is cool
Till they put your friend on ice

And you tell all the kids too
So you think I am a fool
With no army, where's no war
With no war we are all cool

I donโ€™t wanna-wanna die
Don't wanna buy your lies
Don't wanna-wanna
Ah-ah-au!

I donโ€™t wanna-wanna die
Don't wanna buy your lies
Don't wanna-wanna
Ah-ah-au!

Only living to get rich
Buy this buy that it's in each
All these things they're gonna make you
Into their own little bitch

Buy that shit it'll make you better
While they're rich ones, they get fatter
Put the money in their banks
For their children to say panks (Grah-ka!)

I don't wanna-wanna die
Donโ€™t wanna buy your lies

Overall Meaning

The song "Liar" by Russian rave band Little Big is a commentary on the dangers of believing and perpetuating lies. The song starts with the singer calling out someone for their lies, particularly their glamorization of war and soldiering as "cool." The singer then repeats their desire not to die and refusal to buy into these lies. The chorus features the repeated phrase "die, die, die" as a condemnation of the false ideas being spread.


The second verse delves into the idea of consumerism and how it can lead to people being controlled and manipulated. The singer points out that buying into the promises of products and material goods won't actually make someone better, but will ultimately line the pockets of the wealthy. The chorus is repeated again, this time with the added insult of "pants on fire" as a reference to the classic children's rhyme about lying.


Overall, "Liar" is a sharp critique of the ways that lies can be used to gain power and control over others. The song calls for people to resist these false narratives and instead seek out the truth.
