One Less Lie

Well, I knew you couldn't take it
When the tables got turned
You ran for cover to the next best lover
When your fingers got burned
I'm gonna make it easy
I'll just get out your life
And when I said goodbye, there'll be one less lie
You have to sell tonight
Oh

I don't want to drag this out
I don't want you on your knees
Then you can get me good
Just consider me, consider me

One less lie for you to think about
One less lie for you to figure out
One less lie, don't give a second thought
'Cause, baby, now you got
One less, one less lie

Well, I should've known better
With somebody like you
You showed your real heart when it fell apart
And you couldn't come though
But don't make it easy
And just get out of your life
And when I say goodbye, there'll be one less lie
You have to sell tonight
Oh

I don't want to drag this out
I don't want you on your knees
Then you can get me good
Just consider me, consider me

One less lie for you to think about
One less lie you have to figure out
One less lie, don't give a second thought
'Cause, baby, now you got
One less, one less lie
Oh

You said you want to work things out
You said you want to change my mind
I don't want to leave in doubt
I don't want to waste my time

You lie to strangers, baby, you lie to friends
You lie for money, no, the lying never ends
Now don't you worry that someday you'll get caught?
Well, take it easy, baby, now that I got you good

One less lie for you to think about
One less lie for you to figure out
One less lie for you to kick around
For you to kick around, for you to kick around
One less lie
One less lie
Baby, just one less lie
Oh yeah, whoa
(One less lie) One less lie
(One less lie)
No, baby, one less lie
