White Lie

Lyrics
I say I'm ten when I'm nine and a half My uncle tells a joke and I try to laugh In gym, I fake a headache when I want to quit I say I love the sweater that my grandma knit But that's a white lie (White lie) It's the kind you want to tell A white lie (White lie) So your mum won't have to yell A white lie (White lie) Everybody does it Cause it feels alright and it's more polite But a lie's still a lie even when its white I pretend I'm asleep when my dad walks in I said I ate my chicken but I just ate the skin Your face can say you're lying when your month says you're not Your pants are on fire but they're not too hot When it's a white lie (White lie) It's the kind you want to tell A white lie (White lie) Cause your dad will never smell a white lie (White lie) Everybody does it Cause it feels alright and it's more polite But a lie's still a lie even when it's white While it might be hard to say what's true Would you want a white lie told to you? But that's a white lie (White lie) It's the kind you want to tell A white lie (White lie) So your mum won't have to yell A white lie (White lie) Everybody does it Cause it feels alright and it's more polite But a lie's still a lie even when it's white
