Lies

[Verse 1]
Promised I could fight it
The urge to write about it
But I've got rights to express my side of this argument
I'll do that how I want to
I'll write a song about you
I don't need more regrets, so let me say my bit

[Pre-Chorus]
I think my baby needs to go back to school
How can this be complicated? I only had one rule

[Chorus]
Don't lie
Made me say it fifty thousand times
When will you learn I can read your eyes?
Don't have the strength for what the truth requires
I thought I told you that I don't like liars
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah, oh

[Verse 2]
Thought we'd made some progress
We could approach the subject
I even told all my friends
But then you did it again
It's worryin' how you choose to sidestep from the truth
Bored of catchin' you out
Can't you do that yourself?

[Pre-Chorus]
I think my baby needs to go back to school
How can this be complicated? I only had one rule

[Chorus]
Don't lie
Made me say it fifty thousand times
When will you learn I can read your eyes?
Don't have the strength for what the truth requires
I thought I told you that I don't like liars
Oh, ooh, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, ooh

[Bridge]
Ooh, I'm tellin' you
My baby really needs to go back to school
No, it's not that complicated
It's just one simple rule

[Chorus]
Don't lie (Don't lie)
Made me say it fifty thousand times (You made me, made me say it fifty thousand times)
When will you learn I can read your eyes? (Oh when will you, when will you, when will you learn?)
I don't have the strength for what the truth requires (Ooh. ooh)
I thought told you that I don't like (I thought I told you that I don't like lies)
Lies (Oh, yeah)
Made me say it fifty thousand times (Ooh)
When will you learn I can read your eyes? (Ooh, yeah-yeah)
Don't have the strength for what the
Truth requires (Mm)
I thought told you that I don't like liars
