When you tell one lie it leads to another

                                                                    Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie, it leads to anther                                  so you lie and lie without even trying

 So you tell two lies to cover each other                                  and each lie you tell will keep multiplying                                             

Then you tell three lies and, oh brother,                                  ‘till the whole wide world will know

You’re in trouble up to your ears!                                                               You’re  lying

So you tell four 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 may lie                                                    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                               when you lie, you’re closing the door

                     And then                                                                                     on everything good

Whatever will become of you?
