Russian Promise

The act of saying one thing, which puts everyone at ease, then doing the exact opposite of what you propose. It's kind of like a crazy Ivan.
Ivan: Anna, if you go to bed with me, I promise to respect you in the morning.

Anna: Really, I love you so much.

Ivan at 6AM: Get out bitch, here's cab fare. I gave you a Russian Promise last night.

Promise Keepers

Party Promise

Lies that bush the punks made to get elected.

They invent self serving lies and other evilness to make their bullshit sound good and those lies are "party promises".
"The war in Iraq is under control".
"This will keep social securit solvent".
"I served as a fighter pilot in the national guard".
And, his worst one,
"I love America".

beaver promise

The rhyme recited by UK Beaver Scouts "I promise to do my best / To be kind and helpful / And to love God", accompanied by a three-fingered salute.

Whippy Promise

A whippy promise is when you and your homies whip your dicks out and make a blood oath
Yo, Jake why didn't you participate in the Whippy Promise at Duke's house?

I felt the blood oath part was a bit extreme.

Promises, Promises

Never had a doubt
In the beginning
Never a doubt
Trusted too true
In the beginning
I loved you right through
Arm in arm we laughed like kids
At all the silly things we did

You made me promises promises
Knowing I'd believe
Promises promises
You knew you'd never keep

Second time around
I'm still believing words that you said
You said you'd always be here
"In love forever"
Still repeats in my head
You can't finish what you start
If this is love it breaks my heart

You made me promises promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises promises
Why do I believe
Arm in arm we laughed like kids
At all the silly things we did
You can't finish what you start
If this is love it breaks my heart

You made me promises promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises promises
Why do I believe
All of your promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe
