Daniel Donald Doublespeak

Daniel Donald Doublespeak Was a nasty sort of bloke Streams of contradictory things Came out as Daniel spoke! From out of one side of his mouth He'd shower you with praise Telling folks how wonderful you are And how he's so amazed! The other side was opposite Spread rumours about your past Lying bout the things you did An evil unsurpassed! Hurt that's caused by doublespeak Can never be repaired Once those hurtful words are said They float out on the air! So don't you be a doublespeak Be kind to everyone You never know what evil lurks When two mouths speak from one! © Jack Ellison 2012
