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!
