(I'm a) Lie Detector Lyrics

Well if you ever lie, or even try
I'll detect you by and by
Well if you ever cheat or let me down
I will drag you down

'Cause I'm a lie detector
Uh huh
I'm a lie detector
Uh huh
I'm a lie detector
Uh huh

And if you ever cheat
I will catch you too

You can run and hide underground
There's a bullshit detector in my head
You can hide your eyes and all those lies
But you better realise that I'm a lie detector
Uh huh
Well I'm a lie detector
Uh huh
I'm a lie detector
Uh huh

And if you ever lie
I will take you too

If you ever lie, or even try
I will torch you, by and by
And if you ever cheat or let me down
I will drag you down
'Cause I'm a lie detector
Uh huh
I'm a lie detector
Uh huh
I'm a lie detector
Uh huh

And if you ever lie
I will take you too
I will take you too
I will take you too
I will take you too
I will take you too

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
