Composition
I wrote 'Lie, Lie, Lie' after I found out someone close to me had been lying about me behind my back for a long time. It always sucks to hear that someone you thought you could trust would throw you under the bus when it benefits them. It happens to all of us, and I think all you can do is seek out people that build you up rather than tear you down.
— Bassett on the origins of "Lie Lie Lie", Billboard[3]
Bassett dismisses a two-faced friend on the lyrics of "Lie Lie Lie", which include: "So you can lie, lie, lie, lie, lie / Go ahead and try, try, try, try, try / It won't work this time, time, time, time, time / I kiss your ass goodbye, bye, bye, bye, bye".[3]
Music video
The music video for "Lie Lie Lie" was released on January 15, 2021. Seventeen's Tamara Fuentes pointed out several similarities between the video and Bassett's High School Musical: The Musical: The Series co-star Olivia Rodrigo's music video for "Drivers License" (2021).[4][5]
