You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put throughIt's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truthThings could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only liedIt's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truthNever again
Is what you swore
The time before
Never again
Is what you swore
The time beforeNow you're standing there tongue tied
You'd better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell
You'll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truthNever again
Is what you swore
The time before
