lirik lagu tongue is a fire – steve camp

i sat down and turned on my tv
and listened as a politician spoke
he was making lots of promises he couldn’t keep
but that didn’t matter if he could get the votes
i turned over to a talk show by coincidence
hoping that i’d hear it straight
but the author started showing his audience
all he could see was a royalty rate

so i picked up the phone
to call a good friend of mine
saying i need to hear a good word
for my ears have been starving for some honesty
and you know, my friends, it is seldom heard

for the tongue is a fire
it’s an evil which no man can tame
it will take you where you want to if you let it
if you learn to play the game
so go ahead and lie just a little
oh, just look how far you could go
it does not matter who you step on or belittle
they say it pays to sell your soul

i thought i’d show some love to my good friend
by confronting the wrong that i saw
oh, it cost me his friendship in the end
i didn’t count on that happening at all
i thought i was doing him honor
by giving him a frank reply
oh, but lately as i look back, i wonder
is the truth do more harm than telling a lie
oh, my daddy said “yes” should always mean yes
and your “no” should always mean no
there’ll be trouble if you say more or say less
for by your words you let your heart show

that the tongue is a fire
it’s an evil which no man can tame
it will take you where you want to if you let it
if you learn to play the game
so go ahead and lie, lie just a little
oh, just look how far you could go
it does not matter who you step on or belittle
they say it pays to sell your soul

for the tongue is a fire
oh, the tongue is a fire
oh, the tongue, it is a fire
oh, the tongue, it is a fire
oh, the tongue, it is a fire
and you know no man
no man can tame
oh, and everyone
everyone’s still playing
for the tongue, it is a fire
oh, the tongue, it is a fire
