I Hate Lying to Mom

I hate lying to mom because I know it’s wrong

But whenever I ask to go out
All we do it scream and shout

My mom, she doesn’t agree with me
I just, I wanna be free
She always says no, but I gotta go

So now I tell her I’m going to Betsy’s house
And that’s how I get out, I get out

I hate lying to mom, but it really isn’t so wrong
When she makes me do it, she drives me to it
So, why do I feel so bad?
I‘m out tonight and I should be glad
But I feel guilty as hell and she’ll be able to tell

But whenever I ask to go out
All we do it scream and shout

My mom, she doesn’t agree with me
I just, I wanna be free
She always says no, but I gotta go

So now I tell her I’m going to Betsy’s house
And that’s how I get out, I get out

I hate lying to mom because I know it’s wrong
I hate lying to mom because I know it’s wrong
