"The Admonishing Song" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

[Pre-Chorus:]
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why you lied

[Chorus:]
That was not a nice thing to do
Not a nice thing to do
It wasn't very nice of you
Not a nice thing to do

[Pre-Chorus:]
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why when you got caught in it you told the same lie

[Chorus:]
That was not a nice thing to do
Not a nice thing to do
It wasn't very nice of you
Not a nice thing to do

[Pre-Chorus:]
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why you made threats against the life of the prime minister of Canada

[Chorus:]
That was not a nice thing to do
Not a nice thing to do
It wasn't very nice of you
Not a nice thing to do
