Point of View

from Rainbow Squadron by The Hoot Hoots

lyrics

He settled down in a home
In the desert alone
Year after year slipped by

He met a headstrong kid
He tried to mentor him
He let slip he knew how the boy's father died

But the story he told was factually light
Years later the kid asked why
The old man felt so compelled to lie, and he said

There’s a little bit of lie in every truth
From a certain point of view
There’s a little bit of lie

After the old man fell
He came back just to tell the boy where to find
The last of his kind, and after

A mean hook from a wampa
A crash land in a swamp
The boy thought this better be worth my time

And then the boy met this weird little freak
Who rummaged around in his camp saying I know what you seek
The boy rolled his eyes but he was in for a surprise
Cause that’s what you get for judging others by their size

His new master could’ve written a book
On how riddles and white lies can sometimes get you
A little bit closer to the truth

There’s a little bit of lie in every truth
From a certain point of view
There’s a little bit of lie
