All Those Lousey Lies
All Those Lousey Lies
On scene Ben appeared and is prevalent
Because he seems kind and benevolent
Won peace medal when times were dim
Now he doesn't like way they treat him.
With Ben come lately could hardly survive
As well as those on Saturday Night Live
Whose payroll is bigger and also fatter
Ben is a mad hatter and laughing matter.
His appeal is making him prosperous
When highly correlated with preposterous
Makes no difference what he does or did say
His whole base seems to loves him anyway.
A question in my mind is there now being
About was all of this really worth seeing
On ourselves better be getting tight grip
When won't win to who will his base flip?
There is always a flip side to everything
So tissue Ben supporters you should bring
He will never win to no one's surprise
After telling all of those lousy lies.
