Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Would never ever tell the truth.
She lied to her parents.
She lied to her friends.
She’d tell the same lie over and over again.
Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Would never ever tell the truth.
She lied about homework.
She lied about money.
She lied about who ate an entire jar of honey.
Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Would never ever tell the truth.
She lied about big things.
She lied about the small.
She told big lies about things that didn’t matter at all.
Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Would never ever tell the truth.
She lied to get people’s attention.
She lied to get trouble out of her way.
She lied sometimes just to have something to say.
Yes, Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Would never ever tell the truth.
But truth is always revealed.
And soon everyone knew.
Nothing she said was ever really true.
Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Who never ever told the truth.
Found that her parents no longer trusted her.
Her friends didn’t want to hear it.
They didn’t want to listen. They didn’t want to be near it.
Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Who never ever told the truth.
Went in a corner and sat down to cry.
“If I had known the what this would bring,
I would have never started to lie.”
Then Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Decided to always tell the truth.
I’m going to speak the truth, you’ll see.
But her friends didn’t believe it.
She had told so many lies, they just couldn’t conceive it.
But Tribbledy Tibbledy Libbledy Dooth,
Who had decided to always tell the truth.
Stuck to her word to lie no more.
And although it took quite a long while, it’s true.
Once people believed her again, she was glad her lying days were through.
Truthfulness
Someone who is truthful always tells what really happened. They never lie, even if lying could get them out of trouble. In the Bible in John 14:6 Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Jesus doesn’t just tell the truth—He is truth. He is your Best Friend, and you can always trust Him because He and the Bible will never tell a lie.
