When you tell one lie it leads to another

        Paul Hatcher 

When you tell one lie, it leads to another      

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

Suspected

Detected

Rejected

Neglected

Disliked

And you should!

When you lie, you’re closing the door

On everything good
