When you tell one lie it leads to another

Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie, it leads to another

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 because you can’t remember how many lies you’ve told

And half the things you say aren’t true and sometime 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

Suspected

Detected

Rejected

Neglected

Disliked

And you should,

when you lie you’re closing the door on everything good
