Lyrics
You had something to hide
should have hidden it, shouldn't you
now you're not satisfied
with what you're being put through
it's just time to pay the price
for not listening to advice
and deciding in your youth
on the policy of truth
things could be so different now
it used to be so civilized
you will always wonder how
it could have been if you'd only lied
it's too late to change events
it's time to face the consequence
for delivering the proof
in the policy of truth
never again is what you swore the time before
never again is what you swore the time before
now you're standing there tongue tied
you'd better learn your lesson well
hide what you have to hide
and tell what you have to tell
you'll see your problems multiplied
if you continually decide
to faithfully pursue
the policy of truth
never again is what you swore the time before
(yeah, come on!)
never again is what you swore the time before
(oh, that's right)
never again is what you swore the time before
never again is what you swore the time before
never again is what you swore the time before
never again is what you swore the time before
(yeah! thank you very much)
