"Don't Cry for Me Argentina"  
by Andrew Lloyd Webber & Tim Rice
has become "Don't Lie to Me Agent Mulder"

  It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
  But I have a few choice words to say
  About problems I have with the X-Files so far
  Like how you ditch me
  Or relate everything to outer space
  Shaking your head as you smirk
  And asking "Why can't you believe?"

  I've about had enough, you have to change
  I can't spend my whole career this way
  Looking out of the window, while you drive the car
  And to be honest
  I wonder how much you've kept back in each case
  How many times have you heard me say
  "What aren't you telling me now?"

  (chorus)
  Don't lie to me Agent Mulder
  The truth, well, I'd like to hear it
  So don't "protect" me
  Or hide key details
  My patience wears thin
  My self-control fails.

  I think of bombshells you've dropped on me
  You know all about my abduction, it seems
  And I thought that at last I had some of your trust
  Aren't we partners?
  What else have you been withholding from me --
  you know I'm a really good shot
  And accidents happen, you see.

  (chorus)

  Have I made it clear?       
  There's very little I actually ask of you
  But all I'd like to do is hear you talk and know    
  That every word is true.
