Better Be True Lyrics


I don't mind you playing with my imagination
I don't mind you talking about me and you
I might think it's funny if you're fooling with my money
But I don't like you saying things that just aren't trueI don't mind discussing wisdom and the youth
And I don't mind you cussing if you're telling the truth
You can joke about the weather on a lousy day
Don't tell me that you're leaving if you're planning to stayWell, it don't have to be different, it don't have to be new
If you got something to tell me, well, it better be true
It don't have to be clever between me and you
If it's gonna be forever, it better be trueI don't mind rehearsing but I'd much rather play
And I don't mind conversing if you've got something to say
A little exaggeration might be understood
Lying to me, darling, well, that just ain't no goodWell, it don't have to be different, it don't have to be new
If you got something to tell me, well, it better be true
No, it don't have to be clever between me and you
If it's gonna be forever, it better be true
How long? Gonna be forever, it better be trueIf you feel like telling me that you will never leave me
Well, don't you dare deceive me 'cause that will never doWell, it don't have to be different, it don't have to be new

If you got something to tell me, well, it better be true
No, it don't have to be clever between me and you
If it's gonna be forever, it better be true
How long? Gonna be forever, it better be true
Better be trueIf you got something to tell me, better be true
It better be true, better be true
If it's gonna be forever, better be true
It better be true

Huey Lewis & the News is a Academy Award-nominated American rock band based in San Francisco, California. Their greatest success was in the 1980s, when they were one of the most popular music acts of the decade and released several gold and platinum albums. The band is known for writing simple, light-hearted songs from a working-class perspective and typically appealed to yuppies and baby boomers.

Combining a rock (and sometimes, a blues rock) backing with harmony vocals and Lewis's voice, Huey Lewis & the News had numerous hit songs during the 1980s and early 1990s, including "The Power of Love" and "Back in Time" (both of which were featured in the film "Back to the Future"), "I Want a New Drug", "Doin' It All (For My Baby)", "Do You Believe in Love?" "Hip to Be Square", "Stuck With You", and "Jacob's Ladder". Huey Lewis shared three Grammy awards, an American Music Award, and a People's Choice Award along with several artists for his role singing the 1985 charity song "We Are the World".

The track 'Hip to Be Square" features prominently in the 2000 movie "American Psycho", starring Christian Bale as serial killer Patrick Bateman. In both the film and the book it was based on, Bateman is a hardcore fan of the band.
