Grabbing a shovel
Digging for the truth
The lie lay hidden
Not daring to move
Sensing great danger
The lie called for help
More lies arrived
Covering their friend
Protecting him to the end
Noticing the strange pile
Sticking out of the ground
The lie was unaware
That he was now a mound
Poking and prodding
Putting shovel to good use
All the lies Scampered
Then all hell broke loose
