Fool Circle

They said they can’t trust what I say 
Cus I lie about everything each day 
But lying has never been my way 
The attention span of adhd 

It’s just an effort I don’t make 
It drains my energy being fake 
It’s much easier to just be honest 
So that is me and that I promise 

Mates of mine lie as a habit, 
Transparent lies so very tragic, 
I’d watch them lie as it entertained 
sticked to their story which never changed 

When caught they just kept going 
It was so stupidly mind blowing 
Why bother when all are knowing 
On and on their lies kept growing 

I would just face up to facts 
Not interested in blagging back
Nothing ventured nothing to gain 
consistently lying is oh so lame 

Call me lazy there’s no point at all 
You get caught out and look a fool 
But pathological liars think it’s cool 
It’s makes them think they’re successful 

Call them out they get offended 
They turn against on the offensive 
tell lies about you and people listen 
believing it though logic is missing 

And the story is spread around 
becoming a most common sound 
Until all have heard it before
And becomes the truth for sure 

And done before you are aware, 
Judgement anything but fair, 
When you protest your innocence 
Lying is what people sense 

The lie is that you are a liar 
So guilt is the outcome of the trial 
And my mates have been successful 
Conning stupid and the next fool 

Slander is a real life changer 
Close people become a stranger 
But who needs those one sided people 
Who must be sinister or simple

So I don’t try to win over anyone 
Why would I when most are dumb, 
It rocks your world to its very core 
Get up get on and see them no more.
