In the garden of Eden sat Adam and Eve and
When the big boy spoke and said explain yourself
Something deep down like a fever burning hot and leaving eager
Came up as soft as smoke from a cigarette
God knows good things can happen to a good woman
But God knows good things can happen to a bad one
Deep inside there is a life that goes on when it is time
To make a choice to tell the truth or make it easier and lie
This is how we learn to lie
In the garden of the playground
Kids are learning quick how to hold their ground
Cuz its a dog eat dog and you best protect yourself
When the lawyer in the courtroom starts pointing his fingers at you
You better think of something good or you'll be got
God knows good things can happen to a good woman
But God knows good things can happen to a bad one
Deep inside there is a life that goes on when it is time
To make a choice to tell the truth or make it easier and lie
This is how we learn to lie
The truth can set you free but its
Your own good word against your enemies
You better keep your nerve it ticks down to a minimum
In the garden of the buildings and the shopping mall of existence
It's a full parking garage so find your place
It's survival of the fittest
So you animals better get with it
You got a lot to lose so you best not lose yourself
God knows good things can happen to a good woman
But God knows good things can happen to a bad one
Deep inside there is a life that goes on when it is time
To make a choice to tell the truth or make it easier and lie
This is how we learn to lie
