The Lyrics

We all know at least one avid liar who according to them is always right and will not admit the truth. This song is written especially those people.
Tripped up, fell face first on the ground
Tripped on nothing, you looked just like a clown
You felt good that, there was no one around
Don’t want them to know what happened

Failed that, stupid English exam
Thought you passed that, so you called it a scam
It’s not your fault, something’s wrong with your hand
Got a bad excuse for all things

You can’t admit that you made a mistake
You can’t admit that you made a mistake
You blame everyone else, nothing’s ever your fault
Cause you don’t think that you were wrong

You can’t admit that you made a mistake
You can’t admit that you made a mistake
Always have an excuse, for what’s clearly your fault
Cause you never admit you’re wrong

You lost, your geometry book
You said it walked, away when you weren’t look-
ing and hid from, you so you went and took
Your best friend’s book and lied to them

Crashed your mother’s favorite car
But you told her, the policeman’s a liar
You never sped, but then he hit the car
When you know, he pulled you over

You can’t admit that you made a mistake
You can’t admit that you made a mistake
You blame everyone else, nothing’s ever your fault
Cause you don’t think that you were wrong

You can’t admit that you made a mistake
You can’t admit that you made a mistake
Always have an excuse, for what’s clearly your fault
Cause you never admit you’re wrong

You got, in a fight with a man
You said you were, totally innocent
But you attacked, him inside his own base-
ment you left important facts out

You need, what was given to me
Psychiatric, help is right up the street
They can help you, with your dishonesty
They can help you admit the truth

Then you’ll admit that you made a mistake
Then you’ll admit that you made a mistake
You’ll blame nobody else, what’s your fault is your fault
You will always say when you’re wrong

(Then you’ll admit that you) made a mistake
Then you’ll admit that you made a mistake
Nobody else is at fault except you
You will admit all the things that you do

Make no mistake that there are millions on the planet that fit into this parody. Not bad at all.

Definitely rings true. And I can totally see myself belting out that chorus. Nice job!
