"Some of My Lies Are True (Sooner or Later)" was written in San Francisco by the band and recorded in Los Angeles at Studio 55 within three weeks, and the track was released as the album's first single. The song is about people betraying other people, including friends, old friends, and enemies. The video for the song was in heavy rotation on Nickelodeon’s Pop Clips in 1980 – the precursor to MTV.
The B-side for the single was "Don't Ever Tell Me That You Love Me". The songs, along with the album, failed to chart.
Videos were shot for both songs and were later included on the band's 1985 VHS compilation, Video Hits. In 1986, remixes of the songs were included as B-sides to the singles "Hip to Be Square" and "Stuck with You", respectively.
