Calling A Liar By Name

Many people are reluctant to call a liar By his or her name They use all kinds of euphemisms: perjurer, falsifier Prevaricator, ghost crawler, fabricator, deceiver Predictor, palm reader, and more. That's a shame And they refer to lies as allegations, anomalies Deceits, misstatements, calumnies, inaccuracies Myths, falsehoods, tales, distortions and more It's about time that we let it pour Like the rain in May and that we call a liar by name No matter the title, the fortune or the fame We should tell it like it is In order to make the world at ease.
