== Lyrics ==
She's a black widow
She's got a big head 
Jump out the back window 
Don't let her catch your legs 
You gotta be careful 
Don't get caught in the trap 
You're on the surface 
But she's underwater, lightning fast 
And just as your tears go dry
She turns around to make you cry 
You're counting all the sheep in the sky 
Caught up in your web of lies 
Everyone knows That she's got Ulterior Motives 
Tell Me the Truth 
And just when you think 
That you have forgotten 
That's when you notice 
What can I do? 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it 
Tell me the truth 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it 
What can I do? 
Don't let her get started 
Cus she will finish it 
You'll be dearly departed 
You won't know what happened 
You don't believe the rumors 
You think she's innocent 
But will wipe you out 
And then destroy the evidence 
And just as your tears go dry 
She turns around to make you cry 
You're counting all the sheep in the sky 
Caught up in your web of lies 
Everyone knows That she's got 
Ulterior Motives 
Tell Me the Truth 
And just when you think 
That you have forgotten 
That's when you notice 
What can I do? 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it 
Tell me the truth 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it 
What can I do?
[Synth Solo] 
Everyone knows 
That she's got 
Ulterior Motives 
Tell Me the Truth
And just when you think 
That you have forgotten 
That's when you notice 
What can I do? 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it 
Tell me the truth 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it 
What can I do? 
Everyone knows 
That she's got 
Ulterior Motives 
Tell Me the Truth 
And just when you think 
That you have forgotten 
That's when you notice 
What can I do? 
Everyone knows it 
Everyone knows it
== Trivia ==
* The song was played at many clubs across Phelanesia during the 1990s and early 2000s, being a nostalgic tune for many growing up in those time periods.
* The song was covered at the 2000 CBA Music Festival, for the country of Pyrinesia by pop singer Easton Miles. However, the song only got 15th place, and is a mostly obscure cover, due to him changing the lyrics, and the whole feel of the song (giving it more of a soft rock vibe instead of a synth pop vibe)
* It was released on the Romantic Hits of Canadia cassette in 1993, as track 3, which is how the song became popular among music fans. The cassette has been found at many thrift stores, across Canadia and Jonathia.
