When You Tell One Lie 
Paul Hatch
When you tell  One Lie 
When you tell on 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 years!
 So you tell four lies to try to protect you
Then you have 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 sometime you'' slip up, you'' 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
