I say I'm 10 when I'm 9 and 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 
That's the kind you wanna tell 
white lie 
So your mom won't have to yell 
white lie 
Everybody does it cause it feels alright 
and it's more polite 
But a lies still a lie, 
even when it's white 

I pretend I'm asleep when my dad walk's in 
I said I ate my chicken, but I just ate the skin 
Your face can say your lyin’ and when your mouth says your not 
Your pants are on fire, but their not too hot 

But that’s a white lie 
That's the kind you want to tell 
white lie 
So your dad won't have to yell 
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 [bad word]  
would you want a white lie told to you? 

But that’s a white lie 
That's the kind you wanna tell 
white lie 
So your mom won't have to yell 
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
