Big Bunch Of Junkie Lies
Sinead O'Connor · She Who Dwells in the Secret Place of the Most High Shall Abide U
That's what you told it was televised
How can you say that I told you
To obey me, now, that ain't true
That's bullshit
And you know why I did what I did to you
You were killing my best friend
With cocaine and heroin
The son of your good friend
Is lying dead in your apartment
How many is that now
Oh will you be next on a hotel floor?
Big bunch of junkie lies
You tell yourself and your little vampires
You sucked the life of my true friend
Did what I did to make her live again
And I'd never apologize
You stole the life out of my friend's eyes
With bullshit and junkie lies
What will it take for you to realize
She left and she ain't coming home
She only needs you cause she hates being alone
She can't tell who is a good or bad man
Cause her daddy was a fucked-up one...
Big bunch of junkie lies
That's what he said and loooked her in her eyes
Big bunch of junkie lies
Is all he left her when he said goodbye
Now the angels have her in their arms
And herion will never steal her charms
And you can stomp baby feet and cry
She don't believe your junkie lies
Big bunch of junkie lies
That's what you told it was televised
Big bunch of junkie lies

Big Bunch Of Junkie Lies appears on Sinead O'Connor's 2002 album, She Who Dwells in the Secret Place of the Most High Shall Abide U. This recording marks a significant departure from the pop dominance of her earlier career, reflecting her deepening engagement with spiritual themes and experimental production. The track showcases O'Connor's signature emotive delivery within a soundscape that blends rock intensity with gospel-adjacent textures. As part of an album that explores religious devotion and personal turmoil, the song contributes to a broader narrative of introspection found throughout her discography. While distinct from her most commercially recognized hits, the work demonstrates her continued willingness to challenge listeners with complex arrangements and raw vocal performances. It stands as a testament to her enduring ability to merge personal vulnerability with ambitious musical concepts.
