Kelly Clarkson - Tell Me A Lie Lyrics
Can't ever get it right
No matter how hard I try
And I've tried
I put up a good fight
And I'm tired
As you break my heart again this time
Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen listen!
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you're needing distance distance!
Tell me everything but don't you say she's what you're missing baby!
Spare me what you think and tell me
Tell me a lie
You're the charming type
That little twinkle in your eye
Gets me every time
And well there must have been a time
I was a reason for that smile
So keep in mind
As you take what's left of you and I
Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen listen!
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you're needing distance distance!
Tell me everything but don't you say she's what you're missing baby!
If she's the reason that your leaving me here tonight
Spare me what you think and tell me
Tell me a lie.
(oh oh oh)
Tell me
(oh oh oh)
Tell me a lie
(oh oh oh)
Tell me!
(oh oh oh)
Tell me a lie!
(oh oh oh)
Tell me a lie!
(Chorus)
Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen listen!
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you're needing distance distance!
Tell me everything but don't you say she's what you're missing baby
If she's the reason that your leaving me here tonight
Spare me what you think and tell me
Tell me a lie

Kelly Clarkson Tell Me A Lie Comments
I was wondering why this song was a bop. The queen of boos made it lol. Also. Reminds me of that one song from lemonade mouth
So I heard the 1D version first and assumed it was their song...it's one of my favorite songs of theirs. Kelly Clarkson did it great too!
1D'S VERSION IS BETTER😍
Original song is by One Direction.
this version rocks
Cuando la demo de Kelly le da 120.000 vueltas a la versión terminada de los One Erection.
she doesnt have zayn while 1d have
This is good but 1D was better
One Direction
She copied 1D right?
She wrote it and gave it to 1D. This is the demo
í love these music and Im Learning English too
I didn't even know 1D had a version of this song only until I read the comments a few months ago. But I loved Kelly's from the start and still love it the most. Not surprised 1D wanted to record this song... The lyrics are fucking incredible and the song is amazing.
She gave them the song.
She wrote it FOR them:)
honestly I don't even like kelly clarkson, but she killed this song.
+Kate White What's not to like? She is a fucking goddess ^.^
I love both but tbh I like 1D better.
I love both versions a lot, just the thing that is bugging me is seeing people stating that one direction did it first, when kelly wrote the song and she liked how they sang it, so she gave it to them.
One Direction song is great too
This is just better than One Direction version, sorry.
Aw why not this is Kelly's version no need to worry but listen I need to tell you something and then she's better than one direction it's between a girl and the boy using the gender or sex I swear please you love her see what I mean? go and hate yourself
what the fuck is that supposed to mean
Omg I thought this song was a 1D original wth my life is a lie
well they told you a lie
Kelly Clarkson was one of the writers of the song. You notice how the song doesn't sound "completed"? It's because this song is a demo sung by her. It is technically a 1D original written by Kelly.
Bello...
Bravissima....
To everyone who thinks that One Direction is the the original 'artists' of this song, your sadly mistaken. Kelly Clarkson is, she didn't know if she should give 1D her song. She doesn't normally give away her songs like that, but she liked how they sang it, so she gave it to them. I have to admit though, both versions are amazing. I have nothing against One Direction.
one direction fans I don't care what you say there's only one Kelly Clarkson one direction's a boyband they're a majority backstreet boys new kids on the block nsync and soooooooooooooooo many others
okay…what even is your point lol this song is so old now
oh my gosh i thought "Tell Me A Lie" is a 1D creation....anyway Kelly version and 1D version are both amazing!
why can't people spell "you're" correctly???
Jon Counce omg tell me about it your the best thanks for pointing out you're awesomeness :)
I love kelly's version but let's be honest people...it's 2014 stop pretending that one direction sucks.
It's not pretend darlin (:
Ιωαννα μπολικα one direction does sucks
it's 2017 now and i honestly like 1D. But Kelly's version is better, just my opinion. I like theirs too tho
It’s cause they do suck
explico, esta chica iba a sacar la canciones pero se la sesión a 1D convirtiéndola originalmente de ellos okay!?
honestly 1d is better IM 1D AF !11!1111! also Kelly didnt want this in her album cos she obviously didnt like how it sounded in her album. #EMAbiggestfans1D #vote5sos
I like this :) almost as good as the other version by my boys
almost as good this is the original there's only one Kelly Clarkson
both versions of this song are equally as good omg.
If people knew a thing or two, this is the song she wrote FOR 1D
And I'm in both fandoms, js
Magicfairyk Olmedo she didn’t write it for them shut up, if you knew anything you would know that she wrote it and 1D covered it and she liked how they sang so she let them have the song with her on song writing credits
Half the people commenting on here probably haven't even heard One Direction's version. BECAUSE IT'S PRETTY MUCH THE SAME FREAKING THING. Stereotypical boyband my butt. Their first album was eh, but their most recent work is so beautiful. You go and try to hit Zayn Malik's note in You & I and then tell me it's not meaningful. Because you wouldn't work so hard to hit a note if the song didn't mean much to you.
People on here can say one direction doesnt care but they do just as much as kelly I have been with both of these artists from the beginning of their careers and im going to stay with them and stand up for them they both put meaning behind what they sing ENOUGH SAID
The Queen! Kelly Clarkson <3 <3 <3
I love this song. Really wish she'd kept it for herself though
men should listern to this song cos they don't listern all they care about is one thing and if they don't get it on to the next girl and fuck u off
All These 1D Comments Really Bug I Mean Yes They Sang It But Kelly Put Meaning Into It Unlike Some Boy Band That Sang It For Likes And Views And/Or Money Just Saying I Mean Idk Don't Get Me Wrong I Don't Hate 1D But There's A Lot More Variety Then Boy Bands Who Sell Music That Makes Girls Feel Special To Gain Money I Mean Kelly Sings From The Heart And That Makes An Artist c:
Just saying but I am sure One Direction wouldn't just be making all their albums for the money. They love what they do and the money is just a bonus. And yes Kelly does sing from the heart but so do One Direction have you checked out some of their latest music? Cause its full of very meaningful lyrics that have been written from the depths of their hearts:)
LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE DJKFHSDKJHFSKJD :D
Kelly's version is wayyyy Better than 1D, Sorry, They are just your typical stereotype boyband, Kelly Clarkson has the voice and she put's the emotion in the songs she sings :) Kelly Clarkson forever <3
@Marcella T Sorry I meant 4 direction :P byeeeeee!!!!
@britskee03 Every boyband/ girband split up and they have proved it... Kelly clarkson has been around far far longer than 1d...I don't like them..Maybe 1 song, That's it :)
They're definitely not the typical stereotype boy and girl
But she can't hit high notes like Zayn
britskee03 Here lets play a game of “Name one other boy band that”
1. looks up how to twerk while they are still doing a live show
2.got #1 in 37 counties countless times
3. hates dancing
4. got #1 he first year they came out with a single
5. has water fights on stage
6. has video diaries that a lot of people still watch even though they aren’t doing them anymore
7. do funny perfume commercials but they actually make sense (instead of they sexy commercials that don’t make any sense)
8. been kicked out of the AMA’s because they were hitting each other
9. had to move to a different seat at the AMA’s because they kept on tripping people that walked by
10. eat burgers, nachos and bananas while on stage (and tbh probably more)
And then we can talk about them being a typical boy band (I could name more but I could be doing more important things)
kelly's version is better js 😁 love this song!!
The reason Kelly's version doesn't sound "as good" is because she recorded it as a DEMO and didn't really go back to "fine tune" it because she wasn't going to use it herself, otherwise it would have sounded more finished if she were to go back and really perfect it.
Correct Demos are called Demos for a reason....
Amazing ♥ *-* And you... and One Direction... OMG ♥ You are just perfect Kelly
1D ♡♥
1D ♡♥
i love this song, one direction version is better, but i love her
Anahí Rosse because it’s a demo 😭
I was on a lyric website and i clicked Kelly Clarkson and i saw 'Tell Me A Lie" and i was like "Ha wouldnt it be funny if was One Directions song?!" I click it and it was! Im happy she covered it!
actually she wrote it... not covered it
Actually she wrote it. I think 1D bought it so that it could be included on their album :)
seriously? She wrote it? Woah!
She wrote it FOR One Direction. Neither of them covered it:)
Kelly just gave it to the boys:)
Ok then youtube Kelly's vocal register :P your welcome and who won their respective shows :P Also can't compare a demo quality to studio quality. just and unfair comparison
thanks for writing the best song and give it to 1D
The thing I love is that One Direction and Kelly are two of my biggest idols. I love that she gave them this song and I really can't chose a version that I like better they're both amazing.
She gave this to One Direction I love both people and both their versions <3
i love just One Direction
...that I never listen..listen ♫
and also I think that shes better then one direction in general. the only person whos worse the one direction is Justin bieber...no offence to anyone but I just don't like them.
in my opinion..Kelly Clarkson sings it better then one direction.
kelly did not write this for one direction, clearly she had the intention to put it on her album. it didn't make the cut so she gave it to them. who unfortunately usually get all of the credit for it.
Gracias kelly por darle a 1D su mejor cancion!!
Zayns high notes was better
just love it, the version of kelly clarkson and one direction
Me gusta más en 1D , bye,
I agree with you
I have nothing against 1D but this is so much better
to be honest I like Kelly's version way better and im in love with 1D so...
This is a million times better than one direction
Kelly gracias por dar la mejor cancion de 1D
This was on my birthday yay ^^
I think its really interesting to hear the contrast between a boy band and a mature woman
honesty i think kelly sings it better than 1d they sing it good to but it's
just my say in it
Both 1D and Kelly clarkson sing the song so well
My favorite song on the first 1D album. Kelly, write more for them!
I knew this song was her's yesterday that I saw in my cellphone that she was one of the writers and I was like OMG! I like both... but I like it better in 1D
Thank u Bekka M.
O M G EVERYONE SHUT UP AND LISTEN (sorry for my tone I'm just really angry) KELLY CLARKSON WROTE THE SONG THEN GAVE IT TO 1D! LOOK AT DA DATES SHE GAVE IT TO 1D IT SAYS SO ON THE CD JACKET! phew I feel better. I -3 both versions so don't be a hater plz. Thank u and have a nice day.
I am fully aware that Kelly wrote this song and gave it to them so it's legally theirs, but I think both versions are AWESOME. <3
I love it :3
THUMBS UP IF ONE DIRECTION GOT U HERE !
geez 1D did not steal it. Kelly gave them the song otherwise she would've sued them and it'd be on the news everywhere
Where in the song does she say that? I need proof.
I'm directioner, but i love Kelly i like both versions so please keura don't be so dumb that makes that my head hurts...
She should have kept the song for her own album but whatever, I'm glad that at least, we have a demo of her version.
Thanks. Never knew it was a demo. Thanks for the info, too.
Jesus, someone on YouTube speaks sense! Well done!
Also, this is just a DEMO for Kelly. Nothing more, nothing less. Probably what 1D heard when they (and/or their A&R guy) accepted the song for their album. It was never meant to be a 'single' or even an album track. Just. a. demo.
Dudes, don't fuckin' freak over the whole "kelly wrote it, one direction stole it" thing. One Direction did not steal it, she legally gave her song to them after listening to them sing. Also, yes it says on the jacket of the "Up All Night" album she's the original author. Also, we can all agree, both Kelly Clarkson and One Direction sing the song amazingly. So just leave them alone!
ok just get it people Kelly let one direction sing it and no one stole anything from anyone
Kelly wrote the song, Okay. Now everybody be quiet and listen.
I heard this and the 1D version at the same time ,and IT'S AWSOME
actually she wrote the song, but gave it legally to One Direction, get your facts straight before commentin. One Direction did not stole it.
soy directioner , pero esta versión es hermosaa!
They didn't cover it though.. Kelly wrote it but she gave it to them, legally it is their song but she is listed as the writer
trust me if they sued them we would know!
I love Kelly! I love 1D! I love this song! :)
@Maya whithaus actually your wrong she gave it to them
@Maya whithous actually your wrong she gave it to them
Actually one direction stole it off Kelly. It was her song first @lissettestyles1119
Liitlekittypest u r wrong. Her manager Sued one diirection bcuz they used it with out her permission
You people are so dumb. Kelly wrote the song then gave it to One Direction. It wasn't cut. 1D didn't cover it. Its just like when Ed Sheeran wrote Little Things then gave it to the lads. Also, Kelly is listed as a writer on the album. There, that's the true story. Now be quiet people!
People need to look at the video's upload date, JUNE 12, 2011.
Up All Night was released November 18, 2011.
Kelly's song, she gave it to One Direction.
Anyone who can't see this is just delusional.
is there any way I can get the audio of this song?? I love it but since its legally 1 directions song I can't find Kelly's version anywhere:(
i like the song and 1D and Kelly sing it great.
CrystalMurphyMusic: Kelly wrote it. She didn't cover it, she wrote it for 1D.
I love this song. I'm gonna cover it like Kelly! :)
Nice song
