The Lyrics

"Go big or go home" absolutely does not apply to faking an alibi. As the old adage goes: keep it stupid, simple!
Don't want to be caught? Standard base thought, to be fair
So you wanna try and bullshit so they think you
Aren't a bad dude
Best to keep it small, just a white lie and that's all
If your tale's too tall, they'll think something's up with you
Don't be that dude

You don't have to lie so hard
You don't have to claim you were in space
You just have to make up, make up, make up, make up
A more plausible but still false thing
You need a small lie, lie, lie, lie
Just a little lie, lie, lie, lie
Don't need a big lie, lie, lie, lie
Not a weird-ass lie, just a simple lie

Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

Just say you were robbed, don't go on to say they were armed
With lasers that shoot plasma balls that relieved you
Of your pants, ew
Doppelgängers, time travel flair, not a solid ruse
Got so many holes like a sieve, pretty clear you've
Not told the truth

You don't have to lie so hard
You don't have to make a werewolf claim
You just have to make up, make up, make up, make up
A more realistic yet fake thing
You don't have to lie so hard
You don't have to swear the moon is fake
You just have to make up, make up, make up, make up
A believable yet still false thing
You need a small lie, lie, lie, lie
Just a little lie, lie, lie, lie
Don't need a big lie, lie, lie, lie
Not a weird-ass lie
No, not a massive lie, lie, lie, lie
Sliver of a lie, lie, lie, lie
A plausible lie, lie, lie, lie
Not a batshit lie, just a simple lie

Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

You don't have to lie so hard
You don't have to make vampiric claims
You just have to make up, make up, make up, make up
A potential-to-have-happened thing
A non-flimsy lie, lie, lie, lie
A more solid lie, lie, lie, lie
Not a nonsense lie, just a simple lie

Should've cut you off, hand on your mouth for a sec
I can see it clearer, what a bitch hindsight is, true
I hate jail food

I didn't do it! I was…I wasn't…I was dead at the time! I was on the moon! With Steve!
