Uh huh
La da da da da
Sorry sorry sorry sorry
Hey, baby my nose is getting big
I noticed it be growing when I been telling them fibs
Now you say your trust's gettin' weaker
And the reason for my confession is that I learn my lesson
And I really think you have to know the truuth
Because I lied and I cheated and I lied a little more
But after I did it I don't know what I did it for
I admit that I have been a little immature
Fucking with your heart like I was the pre-da-tor
In my book of lies I was the editor
And the author
I forged my signature
And now I apologize for what I did to ya
'Cos what you did to me I did to you
Nononono baby, nononono don't lie
Nononono, yeah you kno kno kno know you gotta try
What you gonna do when it all comes out
When I see you & what you're all about
Nonono babe, nononono don't lie
Yeah you kno kno kno know you gotta try
She said I'm leaving
'Cos she can't take the pain
It's hard to continue this love it ain't the same
Can't forget the things that I've done inside her brain
Too many lies committed too many games
She feeling like a fool getting on the last train
Tryin' to maintain but the feeling won't change
I'm sorry for the things that I've done and what I became
Caught up in living my life in the fast lane
Blinded by lights, cameras, you know the fame
I don't know the reason why I did these things
And I lie and I lie
And I lie and I lie
And now our emotions are drained
'Cos I lie and I lie and a little lie lie
And now your emotions are drained
Nononono baby, nononono don't lie
Nononono, yeah you kno kno kno know you gotta try
What you gonna do when it all comes out
When I see you & what you're all about
Nonono babe, nononono don't lie
Yeah you kno kno kno know you gotta try
Ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ba da ba da ba da ba da badabada
Yo, I'm lying to my girl
Even though I love her
And she all in my world
I give her all my attention and diamonds & pearls
She's the one who makes me feel on top of the world
Still I lie to my girl, I do it
And I lie and I lie and I lie 'til there's no turning back
I don't know why, and I lie and I lie 'til I don't know who I am
Nononono baby, nononono don't lie
Nononono, yeah you kno kno kno know you gotta try
What you gonna do when it all comes out
When I see you & what you're all about
Nonono babe, nononono don't lie
Yeah you kno kno kno know you gotta try
The Black Eyed Peas's song "Don't Lie" is a confession of lies and betrayal. The first verse, sung by will.i.am, is a confession of a man who has lied and cheated in a relationship, causing his partner to lose trust in him. He admits to being immature and playing with his partner's heart, forging his signature in a "book of lies" where he was both the author and editor. He now wants to come clean and apologize for his actions, but he also expects his partner to be honest with him as well. The chorus, sung by Fergie, encourages both parties to be truthful with each other, acknowledging that the truth may be painful but it is necessary to move forward.
The second verse, also sung by will.i.am, is from the perspective of his partner who has been hurt by his lies. She has reached her breaking point and is leaving the relationship because she can't bear the pain anymore. She feels like a fool for believing his lies and playing too many games. Meanwhile, will.i.am is caught up in the fast life of fame, blinded by cameras and attention. He doesn't know why he has lied and betrayed his partner, but he realizes that their emotions are now drained.
Overall, the song deals with the themes of honesty, trust, and betrayal in a relationship. It acknowledges that lying only leads to more pain and ultimately erodes the foundation of any relationship. The song also highlights the importance of communication and being truthful with each other in order to move forward.
