Prince - The Truth LYRICS

What if half the things ever said turned out 2 be a lie
How will U know the truth?
If U were given all the answers when U stopped 2 wonder why
But how will U know the truth?

Everybody's got a right 2 love
Everybody's got a right 2 lie
But the choice U make, it ain't no piece of cake
It ain't no motherfuckin' piece of pie

What if time's only reason was 2 give us all somethin' 2 fear
And if so, y'all, the end of the journey's so clear

Questionnaire – "What did U stand 4?"
Questionnaire – "Who did U save?"
When it gets right down 2 it
Wait a minute
When it gets right down 2 the nitty of the gritty
When it gets right down 2 it
Did U take more than U gave?

Everybody's got a right 2 love
Everybody's got a right 2 lie
But the choice U make, it ain't no piece of cake
It ain't no motherfuckin', motherfuckin' piece of pie!

Mm, well
Gotta tell the truth, y'all, gotta tell the truth! {x3}

If there was just one day when everybody told the truth
We'd all trade bank accounts and move 2 Neptune
