Skeletons in your closet
Itchin´ to come outside
Messin´ with your conscience
In a way your face can´t hide

Oh things are gettin´ real funky
Down at the old corral
And it´s not the skunks that are stinkin´
It´s the stinkin´ lies you tell

[Bridge]
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn´t polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one

So, it´s gettin´ ready to blow
It´s gettin´ ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We´re getting ready to know

It´s gettin´ ready to drop
It´s gettin´ ready to shock
Somebody done turned up the heater
An´ a it´s gettin´ ready to pop

Crevices in your pantry
Now what do we have in here
Havin´ a day time nightmare
Has always been your biggest fear

Oh things are gettin´ real crucial
Up the old wazoo
Yet you cry, why am I the victim?
When the culprit´s y-o-u

[Bridge]
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn´t polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one

So, it´s gettin´ ready to blow
It´s gettin´ ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We´re gettin´ ready to know

It´s gettin´ ready to drop
It´s gettin´ ready to shock
Somebody done turning the heater
An´ a it´s gettin´ ready to pop

It´s gettin´ ready to seep
You´re gettin´ ready to freak
Somebody done picked up the talk box
And gettin´ ready to speak

It´s gettin´ ready to jive
It´s gettin´ ready to gel
Somebody done gone let the lid off
And it´s gettin´ ready to smell

They´re gettin´ ready to deal
You´re gettin´ ready to ill
Somebody done just dropped the big dime
And they´re gettin´ ready to squeal

It´s gettin´ ready to turn
We´re gettin´ ready to learn
Somebody done fired up the brimstone
And you´re gettin´ ready to burn

It´s gettin´ ready to shake
You´re gettin´ ready to ache
Somebody done snitched to the news crew
And it´s gettin´ ready to break

You´re gettin´ ready to lie
They´re gettin´ ready to spy
Somebody´ s been put on the hot seat
And you´re gettin´ ready to fry
