Little Kids Are Stupid & Believe Really Obvious Lies

Kids lie a lot when they're kids.
In the second grade, kids practice lying.
You have to learn to see through the bullshit.
This kid Justin told me his dad worked on Venus,
that he was in the space program.
Justin said he got postcards from his dad,
but I liked planets and science, I knew,
Justin's dad probably never did that.

I always told the truth, but Lizzie lied.
She had problems behaving in school.
She liked telling kids that she won the lottery,
but she always took it too far, after that
she told them she had pet cheetahs,
and she let kids write her lists
of toys she said she'd buy them.
