I say I'm ten when I'm nine and a half
My uncle tells a joke and I try to laugh
In gym, I fake a headache when I want to quit
I say I love the sweater that my grandma knit

But that's a white lie (White lie)
It's the kind you want to tell
A white lie (White lie)
So your mum won't have to yell
A white lie (White lie)
Everybody does it
Cause it feels alright and it's more polite
But a lie's still a lie even when its white

I pretend I'm asleep when my dad walks in
I said I ate my chicken but I just ate the skin
Your face can say you're lying when your month says you're not
Your pants are on fire but they're not too hot

When it's a white lie (White lie)
It's the kind you want to tell
A white lie (White lie)
Cause your dad will never smell a white lie (White lie)
Everybody does it
Cause it feels alright and it's more polite
But a lie's still a lie even when it's white

While it might be hard to say what's true
Would you want a white lie told to you?

But that's a white lie (White lie)
It's the kind you want to tell
A white lie (White lie)
So your mum won't have to yell
A white lie (White lie)
Everybody does it
Cause it feels alright and it's more polite
But a lie's still a lie even when it's white
