The Lie They Want to Hear

Now this won’t hardly hurt at all
You’ll barely feel it when you fall
You wanna get your kicks
Hooray for politics

Before we start now let’s be clear
Nobody’s innocent round here
You’re no worse than the rest
You’re bound to pass the test
As long as you can fake sincere

And tell them the lie they wanna hear
If something’s cloudy, say it’s clear
Bend down and whisper in their ear,
All you got to do is lead them to…
The lie they wanna hear

A big lie’s better than a small
Trust me ‘cause I have told them all
Get good at twisting facts
And soon there’ll be no turning back
Go on, they’re waiting for your call

Tell ’em, tell ‘em the lie… they wanna hear
If something’s cloudy, say it’s clear
Bend down and whisper in their ear,
All you got to do is lead them to…
The lie they wanna hear

Wise men have seen the light
Ten wrongs will make a right
What are you waiting for
Lies open many doors

Tell ‘em the lie, tell ‘em the lie
Tell ‘em the lie…

Tell them the lie… they wanna hear
If something’s cloudy, say it’s clear
Bend down and whisper in their ear,
All you got to do is steer them to…
The lie they wanna hear
Tell 'em the lie they wanna hear
Tell 'em the lie they wanna hear
Tell 'em the lie they wanna hear
