One Lie Leads To Another Lie

By so called reputable people we so often are misled And one lie leads to another lie as we often have heard said And to cover up for one lie another lie you must tell 'Tis a thorny path to heaven but an easy path to hell. One lie leads to another lie that always is the case Your first lie for deception and your second to save face And when you are faced with the truth the truth you will deny And to lie to you comes easy so you tell another lie. One lie leads to another lie if what you say is untrue Then another lie you must tell and your lies won't stop at two But the truth of guilt will free you though the truth can be hard to speak And to lie is always easy and 'tis easy to be weak. Look at ex President Bill Clinton to millions of people he lied When his affair with Monica Lewinsky in public he denied Had he told the truth in the first place of guilt he would have set himself free But he took for him the easy option and he lied quite easily. One lie leads to another lie and to more lies that will lead And to cover for the lies you've already told a good memory you need And though the truth at times is hard to speak the truth will serve you best For the truth will always ring true in a lie detector test.
