Abbey Lincoln - Mendacity Lyrics




Mendacity, mendacity
It makes the world go round
A politician makes a speech
And never hears the sound
The campaign trail winds on and on
In towns from coast to coast
The winner ain't the one whose straight
But he who lies the most

Now voting rights in this fair land
We know are not denied
But if I tried in certain states
From treetops I'd be tied
Mendacity, mendacity
It seems is everywhere
But try and tell the truth
And most folks scream
Not fair!

But if I tried in certain states
From treetops I'd be tied
Mendacity, mendacity
It seems is everywhere
But try and tell the truth
And most folks scream
