The Lyrics

Damned lies (damned lies)
are only one step away
from statistics—that is what some people say—
a step up from mere lies, but they’ll move
to damned lies when liars get in the groove.

But then damned lies (damned lies)
upward to statistics can stream,
and that’s when the BS really starts to steam.
There are so many lies swirling around.
No matter where you look, they’re gonna be found.

Out there are puppets who buy ’em; they’re scammed and don’t know it—
in a conning sting.
They’ll drink ’em right down, not have any doubt.
They don’t know a thing.
They will take a lot of nonsense at face
value; their gullibility is misplaced.

Damned lies (fat lies)
damned lies, so easy to find ’em;
It would be a good idea to discover who designed ’em.
People are working thinking up all of these lies;
by now you’ve likely figured out who are these guys

Louts take in puppets who buy shit; they’re damned and don’t know it—
then gone is their bling
There’s a stinking town full of thieves and touts
that know how to sting.
They will spew nonsense all over the place,
yet they get chosen in an election race.

Fat lies (fat lies),
fat lies, so easy to find ’em;
all you gotta do is take a look at who is behind ’em.
The fakes and snakes in DC come up with lots of lies.
When their lips move, they spew untruths up to the skies.

Lies guys.
