Karaoké Alyssa Lies Jason Michael Carroll

My little girl met a new friend just the other day

On the playground at school between the tires and the swings

But she came home with tear filled eyes

And she said to me daddy

Alyssa lies

Well I just brushed it off at first

'Cos I didn't know how much my little girl had been hurt

Or the things that she had seen

I wasn't ready when I said you can tell me and she said

Alyssa lies to the classroom

Alyssa lies everyday at school

Alyssa lies to the teachers

As she tries to cover every bruise

My little girl laid her head down that night to go to sleep

As I stepped out the room

I heard her say a prayer so soft and sweet

God bless my mom and my dad and my new friend, Alyssa oh, I know she needs you bad

Because Alyssa lies to the classroom

Alyssa lies everyday at school

Alyssa lies to the teachers

As she tries to cover every bruise

I had the worst night of sleep in years

As I tried to think of a way to calm her fears

I knew exactly what I had to do

When we got to school on Monday I heard the news

My little girl asked me why everybody looked so sad

The lump in my throat grew bigger

With every question that she asked

Till I felt the tears run down my face

And I told her that Alyssa wouldn't be at school today

'Cos she doesn't lie in the classroom

She doesn't lie anymore at school

Alyssa lies with Jesus because there's nothing anyone would do

Tears filled my eyes when my little girl asked me why

Alyssa lies

Oh, daddy oh, daddy tell me why

Alyssa lies
