When You Tell One Lie it Leads to Another Paul Hatch

         When You Tell One Lie it Leads to Another

 

   When you tell one lie, it leads to another                             Paul Hatch

      So you tell two lies to cover each other

    Then you tell three lies and, Oh Brother,

         You’re in trouble up to your ears!

So you tell four lies to try to protect you

Then you tell five lies so folks won’t suspect

                              You

Then you tell six lies and you’ll collect

   A life filled with worries and fears

Cause you can’t remember how many lies

                           You’ve told

And half the things you say aren’t true

And sometimes you’ll slip up, you’ll trip up

                           And then

             

Whatever will become of you ?

      So you lie and lie without even trying 

        And each lie you tell will keep

  multiplying 'Till the whole wide world will know 

   you're lying Then you'll be SuspectedDetected

                  Rejected Neglected

                           Disliked

                  And you should!

         When you lie, you're closing the door

                  On everything good
