You've got no alibi

'Cause everything you say is a lie

You're gunning for half-past twelve

It's deeper into your mind we delve

The older sister of one makes two

But you say she's coming after you

A little lie lets the story unfold

That little lie that keeps the story told

A tall tale of ambition and power

Luna's ruse is the one of the hour

Your sister's mind has been bought and sold

Now everypony thinks you're made of gold

But what they don't know surely can't do harm

It's better sounding Nightmare Moon's alarm

A littlе lie sends her to thе moon

A little lie that gets discovered soon

A little story, and you've got all the power

Gone a thousand years with the tale of the hour!

You're telling vicious lies

Your power knows no compromise

You're telling vicious lies

To be the savior in their eyes!

Nightmare Night descends upon the world

Your web of lies and deceit unfurl

With everypony looking to the sky

Never knowing that it's all a lie

You send the elements to beat her down

Nevermind you're nowhere to be found

Another lie only seals their fate

For all time it's Nightmare Moon they hate

A little story and you've got all the power

Gone a thousand years with the tale of the hour!

You're telling vicious lies

Your power knows no compromise

You're telling vicious lies

To be the savior in their eyes!

You're telling vicious lies

Your power knows no compromise

You're telling vicious lies

To be the savior in their eyes!
