When you Tell One Lie it Leads to Another
Paul Hatch
When you tell one lie, it leads to another So you lie without even trying
So you tell two lies to cover each other And each lie you tell will keep
Then you tell three lies and, Oh Brother, multiplying
You're in trouble up to your ears! 'Till the whole wide world will know
So you tell four lies to try to protect you you're lying
Then you tell five lies so folks won't suspect Then you'll be
you Suspected
Then you tell six lies and you'll collect Detected
A life filled with worries and fears Rejected
'Cause you can't remember how many lies Neglected
you've told Disliked
And half the things you say aren't true And you should!
And sometime you'll slip up, you'll trip up When you lie, you're closing the door
and then On everything good
Whatever will become of you?
