When you tell One Lie it Leads to Another

When you tell one lie it leads to another 

so when 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, 

Then you tell five lies so folks wont 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 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.....
