Lies

Why do you keep on telling lies ?
treating me like a fool
don't you even remember me
we were together,  at school

why do you keep on telling people ?
you're Dad , was a racing driver
and played for Everton
the nearest he got to Goodison
was watching from the box

Why do you keep on telling lies ?
you're full of porky pies
the other week, I heard you say
you worked for MI5

why can't you just be yourself ?
Why do you have to lie ?
you think if we saw your real face ?
that all your dreams would die

I'll look you in the eye and say
I think you're really nice
so why'd you keep on telling lies ?
why'd you roll, them dice ?

Why'd you keep on telling lies ?
you're mum , don't know the queen
some of the things , that you make up
are really quite obscene

Why do you keep on telling lies to me ?
surely you must know
you see me in the mirror, everyday
just leave the pretence and go

go out there and be yourself
and stop telling all these lies
because when you do
I think , you'll be surprised

So don't treat me like a fool , no more
I'm always there you see
because if you keep on telling lies
you never, will be free

IMO, this is easily the best of the lyrics you posted.  Sings easily and with some good drama.  Flows well, and has an important and relateable message/theme. 

Will be interesting to hear it with melody and music.
