Something in your eyes makes you realize
How strange it seems
Something in your smile should be up on trial
A girl can dream
You're counting on a shift in disguise
Caught up in your world of lies
Everyone knows it (You've got)
Ulterior motives, tell me the truth
Every move shows it (Ah-ah)
Don't you realize that you're telling lies?
Ah
If something's on your mind, spit it out and find
The perfect girl
All your truths and dares, do you really care
Just who I am?
You're always biting more than you can chew
When will you realize the truth?
[Chorus]
'Cause everyone knows it (You've got)
Ulterior motives, tell me the truth
Every move shows it (Ah-ah, ah)
I got it from your eyes that you're telling lies
Everyone knows it (Knows it), you've got
Ulterior motives, tell me the truth
Every move shows it (Shows it)
That you've got ulterior motives (Ah)
You're always biting more than you can chew
You're always saying more than you knew
You're counting on a shift in disguise
Caught up in your world of lies
Everyone knows it (Knows it)
