When You Tell One Lie

                 When You Tell One Lie 
                                                         Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie, bit 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.

''Cause you can't remember how many times 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
