Billy Liar Pants On Fire Mouth Smells Like Soap

I used to think Until the penny dropped Upon my tinny little head And then I stopped As then and forever after From that very moment on I knew I could never no longer pretend that which I did not to know before Otherwise everything that which i proceed to utter and so thereafter comes out my mouth Is no longer worth a penny thought But and yet a lie for which I am at some point Bound to get found out for and caught Only to be branded with the unsavory nickname moniker of Billy Liar Pants on Fire Mouth constantly smell's like soap Doesn't know or could tell the truth The only thing that comes out his mouth Is either a lie or a most unfunny joke and both should be taken with a healthy pinch of salt So as in order to masquerade and mask the sour bitter after taste Sadly both he and his lie's leave behind in his wake And worst of all is in actual reality he really isn't a bad guy inside In fact the only reason why people don't seem to actually or choose to like him or are able to find fault with is Because he lie's and they can't seem to fathom out why And now the lie's have gotten so old he now instead is seen as nothing more than an endless tiering bore
