Deceita Or What a Circus
DECEITA
Oh what a circus, what a show!
The United States Senate has gone to town
Over the selection of a judge to the Supreme Court
They’ve all gone crazy
And there’s none who can do it with such self righteousness
Falling over themselves to get
All the hypocrisy right
They couldn’t let it happen
It had to be changed
Couldn’t have a Judge with constitutional belief
That could ruin all their Utopian plans
Must arrange his removal
Ran around looking for somebody who
Would accuse - old answer there all the time
Destroyed reputation in view
And as for facts and veracity
They never invited them in
They found a martyr, who’d represent all the suffering
of her sex
Nulling basics of evidence and truth
The end justifying the means
Cry now for the Constitution
The truth is no longer objective
With accusations wild
And with no evidence
They found him guilty
He’s deemed defective
Cry now for Lady Justice
Assumed innocence holds no longer
We have a victim now
And he the assailant
No need for witnesses
Calumny is stronger
