I lie and I cheat
That's why I lay down at your feat, boy

Every now and then you give me flowers
Mostly the morning after
To show me that I was wrong
So wrong
It took me one hundred years to find you
It's sad I admit
But I can't quit

Chorus
Every now and then you blow me a kiss
And then you blew it, with your fist
Pride makes me bear those bruises
When you grin
No roses without thorns

Chorus

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater,.

Won Ton Ton is the successor to the group Chow-Chow that had a short but beautiful span of new-wave attention in the years 1984-1985.

After the split, Bea had started a career on television and continues to sing in the LSP-band (a changing group of musicians that perform mainly
covers). Her popularity gets the group a new record contract. In 1987 the group reforms - under the name Won Ton Ton - and release the single "I lie
and I cheat".

This splendid and emotional song becomes a big hit, both in Belgium (n° 10)and in Holland (n° 13). The successors, "Hey Marlene" and the intimist "Can I come near you" fair less well.

The group doesn't let it's spirits drop after that, but continues to record.
However, Bea Van Der Maat is only willing to give part of her attention to
the band : it is shared by her television career (she makes the move to VTM
and presents "Tien om te zien" - a program carrying the more commercially
oriented Flemish music) and her personal life (she gives birth to two
children). Perhaps it's this that prevents Won Ton Ton from going the extra
mile and becoming a big group.

In 1996 Bea Van Der Maat releases a solo album with trip-hop music "Thin
skinned" that gets very good reviews but sells poorly.
