Description
This is really a protest song from a guy who has been lied to on numerous occasions but who now knows what truth is
Notes
YOU KNOW IT'S A LIE
Chorus
Since you know it's a lie, lie, lie
Oh please tell me why, why, why
Just why do you try to hide
The truth from me
You would have me believe that
They would send my daddy to hell
But in my moment of grief
It's a different tale you tell
That I'll meet him upstairs
If only I would live
Like one who believes...
If my possessions I would give
But you know...
Repeat Chorus
Do you truly believe
That the bible is what you use
What will you achieve
By believing what you choose
You'd have me believe
That Jah is a mystery
Since I can't understand
How he's one and yet still three
Repeat Chorus
True, you tell me not to steal
And that it's illegal to kill
The Bible says too that it's real
And so I believe, yet still
I don't think that I can trust you
And it's because...
You keep telling me
About Santa Claus...
Chorus
Since you know it's a lie, lie, lie

It's a different tale you tell
