In a small moment
   She accepted credit for something she did not do
   She said she'd done the water color in her bedroom
   But it was done by a friend from school
   Just a little lie
   No one would discover
   At least not very soon
  
   In a small moment
   Just a little lie
   When she wasn't looking it just slipped on by
  
   In a small moment
   In a restaurant where she worked the late night shift
   She short changed a sailor and made five
   You could never really call it a theft
   Just a little lie
   Swept up in her apron and kept as a well deserved gift
   In a small moment
   Just a little lie
   When she wasn't looking it just slipped on by
  
   In a small moment
   She cheated on her lover and placed it in the back of her mind
   As long as nobody knew the truth about her
   It could never really be unkind
   Just a little lie
   that slipped beside her as she tossed and turned in her alibis
  
   In a small moment
   Just a little lie
   When she wasn't looking it just slipped on by
   Just a little lie
   When she wasn't looking it jsut slipped on by
   Slipped on by
