Lyrics for Song: Do U Lie?
Lyrics for Album: Parade
Les enfants qui mentent ne vont pas au paradis
(The children who lie don't go to paradise)
(Ok) Ok, Merci
When I lie awake in my boudoir I think of u dear
Do u think of me, or do u lie, do u lie?
When I'm in a sad and lonely mood dear, I cry 4 u dear (I cry 4 u)
Do you cry 4 me, do u cry, do u cry?
When I need someone 2 talk 2, u're not around
When I need another human's touch, I wear a frown
'cause u're uptown
Going down, going down, going down
I, I, I don't lie to u (i i don't lie)
When I say that I'm in love mama (mama, mama)
I feel so good when u're near (mama, mama)
Tell me do u feel it 2
Do u lie, do u lie? (or do u cry)
Do u cry from the inside out dear
Or are they only artificial tears? (artificial tears)
Do u really mean it when u cry,
When u cry, when u cry?
When I need someone 2 talk 2, (do u lie)
u're not around (u're not around)
u're not around (I wear a frown)
When I need (tell me why)
another human's touch,
I wear a frown (tell me why u wanna go)
Cause u're uptown (and leave me all alone)
Going down, going down, going down (goin' down)
Going down, going down, going down (down, down, down)
Going down, going down, going down (down, down, down)
When I lie awake in my boudoir (I think of u)
I think of u dear (do u)
Do y'all think of me,
Or do u lie, do u lie?

Do U Lie?
Do U Lie? stands as a vibrant highlight from Prince's 1986 album Parade, capturing the artist at the height of his creative experimentation. Released during the Purple Rain era, the track showcases Prince's signature blend of funk, pop, and new wave influences. The recording features his trademark guitar work and dynamic vocal delivery, exploring themes of romantic uncertainty with characteristic flair. As part of a prolific period in his discography, the song reflects the bold sonic textures that defined mid-1980s Minneapolis sound. It remains a testament to Prince's ability to craft infectious melodies while pushing genre boundaries. The track endures as a beloved song in his extensive catalogue, illustrating the playful yet sophisticated approach that cemented his legacy as a musical innovator. |
