Taffy

About Taffy

"Taffy" is a song written and sung by Lisa Loeb. The song was recorded in 1995. It is featured on her album Tails, and her 2006 greatest hits album, The Very Best of Lisa Loeb. It is about a boyfriend who always lies: the expression is saying that he likes to stretch the truth, which is basically lying. Although the song was not a very successful single, it was moderately successful on radio. It peaked at #6 on U. S Billboard Bubbling Under The Hot 100 in early 1996, and the single's video was popular on VH1 and MTV. The song charted in the New Zealand RIANZ Top 40 at #39, and peaked at #96 on the Australian singles chart. more »

My friend's got a bruise on his leg, 
A bruise on his leg
Everytime you speak.
My friend's got a bruise on his leg, where I press my knee
Everytime you speak.
Actually, bottom line, you tell the truth sometimes.
Sometimes you tell the truth like you're pulling taffy. 
My friend's got a bruise on his arm, a bruise on his arm
Everytime you speak.
My friend's got a bruise on his arm, where I shove my elbow
Everytime you speak. 
Actually, bottom line, you tell the truth sometimes, and sometimes you tell the truth like
You're pulling taffy. 
My friend's got a bruise on his ribs where I poke my finger
Everytime you speak.
My friend's got a bruise on his ribs, his rib cage is now numb
Everytime you speak.
Actually, bottom line, you tell the truth sometimes,
And sometimes you tell the truth like you're pulling taffy.
