I think this is just a more elaborate way of calling someone a liar. Siuenti (talk) 22:44, 9 October 2012 (UTC)
Spanish translation edit
A while ago, someone added "mentiroso, mentiroso, pantalones en fuego" ("liar, liar, pants in/on fire"). The way it said "on fire" didn't even mean "on fire" as in "burning" but more like "on top of some fire". Then it got changed to "oso, oso, mentiroso" which at least rhymes but I don't think I've heard speakers of Spanish actually say that. What I have heard is "se pilla antes a un mentiroso que a un cojo" (you catch a liar faster than (you catch) someone who limps". So should I change it to that?
