Here's a song about lying and how it comes back on you, like it did on Jacob when the deceiver was 'taken to school' by his Uncle Laban, who was an even bigger deceiver.

Story behind the song
Written for an AWANA lesson on Jacob and Laban. Jacob deceived Esau, and was 'taken to school' by Uncle Laban. The basic message was and is that deception and lies come back to get you, so it's better to apologize and tell the truth.
Lyrics
THE DEVIL IS A LIAR Jerry was sitting in his favorite place Watching cartoons with a big grin on his face When his mom came in to the living room With a little bit of anger and the Voice of Doom. “Did you clean your room like you said you would?” (spoken) “Oh sure, Mom! Don’t you know I’m ALWAYS good!” But you know that you just told a great big lie And it’s gonna get out someday HEY it’s gonna get out someday. Cause the Devil is a liar and the father of lies And he wants you to lie lie too And if you LIE LIE LIE like that liar says It’s gonna come back on you! Yes! It’s gonna come back on you. Now Jesus IS the truth and He’s Lord of ALL And he’s never told a lie since that manger stall And He wants kids like Jerry to be honest too So they’ll grow up to love what is right and true Cause Jesus loves you and his love is true But the Devil is a baddie and he DON’T LIKE YOU. So better tell the truth and do just what you said He was gonna get a hug but got a spanking instead He was gonna get a hug but got a spanking instead. Chorus: Jerry was sitting in his favorite place Watching cartoons with a big grin on his face When his mom came in to the living room With a little bit of anger and the Voice of Doom. “Did you clean your room like I heard you say?” (spoken)“Oh I’m sorry, Mom! I’ll do it RIGHT AWAY!” And Jerry jumped up and did just what he said He was gonna get a spanking, got a hug instead He was gonna get a spanking, got a hug instead Chorus: (2x)
