There's a wall of lawyers surrounding you
There's a question of guilt that's hanging o'er your busy days
You've been twisting forward and spinning back
And fooling with odd ideas off of the beaten track

Lies are your cover; lies are your cover

A lying tongue brings a furious fate
But you might escape in the nick of time from the ones you hate
Now the facts are in but the jury's out
And your polls are rising while Hillary continues to pout

Lies are your cover--no one can see
Lies are your cover--so secretly
You're hiding your lover; your lies are your cover

You're afraid of what you're made of but you can't save your face
Explanations to the nation still seem badly off base
Do we know you?  Do you know us?  Can you regain our trust?
When you fake it, will you make it?  Is your legacy lust?

There's a future lost; you'll account for the waste
Colin Powell says the presidency's been disgraced
Now you're keeping a secret that can't be kept;
It still counts as sex with her with whom you never slept

Lies are your cover
Lies are your cover--no one can see
You're hiding your lover--so secretly
Your lies are your cover
