You Must think that I'm a fool This twisted tenderness Just leaves me cool You've got me in a mess You know it's true Out in the wilderness Here without you Right outside It's a cruel world Something happening, it's distracting You're just bad news, girl Never let that feeling die All you've got to do Is tell a little lie (tell a little lie, tell a little lie) Don't you know it's true? I will never let you down Spread this message all around That I hope and that I pray You can turn my life around Take A look out there We're under house arrest And you don't care We could always be friends But you were careless right 'Til the end I feel guilty Oh, it's such a shame It's frustrating, it's a sad thing And there's no one else to blame Never let that feeling die All you've got to do Is tell a little lie (tell a little lie, tell a little lie) Don't you know it's true I won't ever let you down Spread this message all around That I hope and that I pray You won't take my love to town Tell a little lie, tell a little lie That's all you have to do Is tell a little lie (tell a little lie, tell a little lie) Don't you know it's true? Right outside It's a cruel world Something's happening, it's distracting You're just bad news girl Never let that feeling die All you've got to do Is tell a little lie (tell a little lie, tell a little lie) Don't you know it's true? I won't ever let you down Spread this message all around That I hope and that I pray You won't take my love to town Tell a little lie, tell a little lie That's all you have to do Is tell a little lie (tell a little lie, tell a little lie) Don't you know it's true?
