Pure as Driven Snow

Savoy

Compositor: Pål Waaktaar

I think it truth is to be told
No one is pure as driven snow

A little white lie
(That Acceptable)
Told on the sly
(Undetectable)
Once in a while
(What a spectacle)

So keep it on the up 'n' up
Above- board and all that stuff
Not streching the truth
(Reprehensible)
Or twisting the news
(Indefensible)
Spouting half -truth
(Not commendable)

All this urge to minisform
You're just following the norm
Just look around

But you might need a gentle push
To nenver beat around the bush

And lie thru your teeth
(That's despicable)
Draped in deceit
(Unforgivable)
A fraud and cheat
(So predicable)

A little white lie
(That acceptable)
Told on the sly
(Undetectable)
Just once in a while
(What a spectacle)
