Lyrics

(Lies, lies, using lies as alibis)
Using lies as alibis
(Lies, lies)
Lies
(Just a devil in disguise)
It's the same game
Played in many ways
Everyone is the victim too
It's just a waste of time
Made for simple minds
So, why do people insist on lies?
I'll live my life a different way
Refuse to let myself become a victim
Getting caught up in a vicious web of lies
They can hurt you
(Lies)
And destroy you
(Using lies as alibis)
Watch out for lies
(Lies, lies)
Lies
(Just a devil in disguise)
Just a devil in disguise
The nation's leaders
As well as teachers
Practice lies as a way of life
Yes, they do
So think before you speak
'Cause what you sow you reap
The truth will always be brought to light
Will we ever learn one day
That telling lies will always leads to matters
Misery and sometimes pain?
(Lies, using lies as alibis)
Using lies as alibis
(Lies, lies)
Oh lies
(Just a devil in disguise)
And he's made simple minds
(Lies, lies, using lies as alibis)
Yeah, lies
Made for simple minds
(Lies, lies)
Lies
You got to think about him
(Just a devil in disguise)
Those are lies
Lies and deceit
Yes, it's running real rampant
Communities suffering, yo I can't stand it
When we think of lies we tend to think of politicians
But what about the husband who's on a mission?
Lying to his wife so he can get it on and get some
Coming back home with a dumb expression
Written on a face that he's guilty as a criminal
It's time to change your attitude
People do you hear me? Don't listen
To a funky rhyme that's kickin' knowledge that we need
We lie about our hair
And we know we got a weave
Politicians lie 'bout the things they're gonna do
And everybody's tale affects me and you
A smoker lies about the money that he stole
And a dope dealer never tells you how he got his gold
I guess what Debbie T. is really trying to say
When you break it all down, we're really all the same
I'll live my life a different way
Refuse to let myself become a victim
Caught up in a vicious web of lies, no
(Lies, using lies as alibis)
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Using lies
(Lies, lies)
Your lies, not here
(Just a devil in disguise)
Lie, lie, lie, lying
(Lies, lies)
Oh-oh
(Using lies as alibis)
Oh yeah, you ruin your life
(Lies, lies)
You better think twice
'Bout hurtin', bout teasin', you're lovin'
(Using lies as alibis)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah, oh, ooh
(Lies, lies)
(Just a devil in disguise)
Hold up
Devil in disguise
(Lies, lies)
Oh no
Need a little lie
(Using lies as alibis)
