Artist/Band: Iggy Pop
Lyrics for Song: Facade
Lyrics for Album: Avenue B [1999]



A little girl trapped in her knowledge and craft

Came tripping to my room last night

I cooked her a steak and I tried not to fake

And still make everything alright

She had dreads in her hair and problems and cares

She tried hard not to let 'em show

She was decent and sweet and I was sizin' up the meat

But doubts fell in my mind like snow

And when the shove comes down to love

The facade falls down

And when the bricks fall from the tricks

The facade falls down



It's a sunny afternoon and I'm sitting in my robe

I'm dirty and I'm here alone

There's a story on my table that talks about me

And I want to stuff it down the author's throat

And I'm sleeping with someone new every night

And in the morning politely saying "bye"



And I'm nowhere and no one

And I only wanna run

And I feel like a hamburger bun

And when you must

Believe or bust

The facade falls down

When you're scared of a brand new care

The facade falls down

I got no reason to believe

I got no reason but I'm New York Scumbag Tough

And I'll keep on truckin'



So night is falling

And I'm getting' tired

And it's time to get my slippers and books

Got a sweater and glasses

And something that passes

For a way to get by in this world

And I'm getting' tired

Of so many different things

I guess I'm just plain tired

Or maybe too intelligent to believe

In the obvious side of things

And when voice says make a choice

The facade falls down

When your knees start to concede

The facade falls down

When the shove comes down to love

The facade falls down

And when the bricks fall from the tricks

The facade falls down



The facade falls down

The facade falls down

The facade falls down

The facade falls down

The facade falls down
