Truths Too Expensive

https://suno.com/song/1b54c9d3-4d3f-42f4-98d3-2fc962920567


Verse 1

Truth walks in quiet, sits down alone

Lie’s in the corner working the room

Truth tells a story nobody likes

Lie tells ten that sound alright

Everybody nodding their heads in time

Nobody asking what’s real tonight

Chorus

Truth’s too expensive

Most folks can’t pay

Lie’s a cheap whiskey

Gets you through the day

Everybody preaching honesty

While they’re living a disguise

Truth’s too expensive

That’s why the world buys lies

Verse 2

Politicians smiling on every screen

Selling tomorrow like it’s gasoline

Preachers promising golden streets

While passing the basket down the pew seats

Everybody swears they’re heaven-bound

Just don’t let the truth come around

Chorus

Truth’s too expensive

Most folks can’t pay

Lie’s a cheap whiskey

Gets you through the day

Everybody preaching honesty

While they’re living a disguise

Truth’s too expensive

That’s why the world buys lies

Bridge

Truth don’t get elected

Truth don’t get applause

Truth don’t make you popular

Truth just keeps the score

Final Chorus

Truth’s too expensive

Most folks can’t pay

Lie’s a cheap whiskey

Poured every day

Everybody swears they want honesty

Till it cuts them down to size

Truth’s too expensive

That’s why the world buys lies

    Once a week me and my wife go back down to small town life to eat lunch. There's always a group of about eight guys there just having a good time. I tell my wife she needs to ware her boots when we go there. She asked me why and I tell her because the SH-T's getting deep from all the lies.

    Enjoyed the listen Elvis
