[Verse 1] You talk real sweet When they all can see Fold your hands so neat Like you never bleed Brand-new halo on Saturday night Then you change the face By the morning light [Pre-Chorus] I know your move I know your name One for the crowd One for the shame Look at me now Donβt act surprised You keep two mouths And both tell lies [Chorus] Good little hypocrite Good little hypocrite Say it like a prayer Then you disappear Good little hypocrite Good little hypocrite Smile for the room And twist the knife near (you do) (you do) Good little hypocrite (you do) (you do) Good little hypocrite [Verse 2] You save your tears For the perfect scene Cry on cue Like a magazine You bless the weak Then you count the cost Leave a clean white cross For the ones you lost [Pre-Chorus] I know your move I know your name One for the crowd One for the shame Look at me now Donβt act surprised You keep two mouths And both tell lies [Chorus] Good little hypocrite Good little hypocrite Say it like a prayer Then you disappear Good little hypocrite Good little hypocrite Smile for the room And twist the knife near (you do) (you do) Good little hypocrite (you do) (you do) Good little hypocrite [Bridge] Take off the pearl Take off the pose I see the cracks Under the gold You want clean hands You want no blame But every truth Still knows your name [Final Chorus] Good little hypocrite Good little hypocrite Say it like a prayer Then you disappear Good little hypocrite Good little hypocrite Smile for the room And twist the knife near (you do) (you do) Good little hypocrite (you do) (you do) Good little hypocrite
