Текст (слова) песни: Sting - 03 Big Lie Small World

 
I sat down and wrote this letter 
Telling you that I felt better 
Since you’d gone and I was free 
I’m so happyI have so little time to spare now 
I’m wanted almost everywhere now 
I make out like Casanova 
Friends are always coming overI signed my name as if I meant it 
Sealed it with a kiss and sent it 
The letter had improved my mood 
Happy in my solitudeBut halfway home I changed my tune 
And when I saw my lonely room 
The mirror caught my eye 
When I sit down I cryBig lie, small world 
Big lie, small worldI had to intercept that letter 
Telling you that I was better 
I raced to catch the postman’s van 
He was leaving as I ranI miss the bus I miss the train 
I end up walking in the rain 
Big dog chased me down the street 
I hadn`t had a bite to eatFeeling sorry for myself 
Wishing I was someone else 
I walked across the city 
`Cause I couldn’t stand your pityBig lie, small world 
Big lie, small worldThe place you live looks opulent 
And obviously a higher rent 
Than our cosy little room 
I had this sense of doomThe landlord says you’re out of town 
That your new boyfriend’s always around 
The hour was getting late 
So I sit down and waitHere’s the postman with my letter 
Coming down the path, he’d better 
Give that thing to me 
I have to make him seeBegging doesn’t do the trick 
He thinks that I’m a lunatic 
And then who comes upon the scene 
But your new boyfriend Mr. CleanI hit the postman, hit your lover 
Grabbed the letter ran for cover 
The police arrived in time for tea 
Said they’d like to question meI can only curse my fate 
I have to face the magistrate 
It hasn’t been the best of days 
I’d like to fly awayBig lie, small world 
Big lie, small world
