Fooled By Doubespeak

You've all heard the phrase “field of vision” What we see with the naked eye But some things that are beyond our vision Have effects on both you and I Must always try reading between the lines Where real meanings often hide People are not always honest and up front Sometimes they take you for a ride Most refrain from hurting other's feelings But some have a nasty streak Hidden meanings aren't always that obvious Don't be fooled by doublespeak So try getting down to the real meaning Look past your “field of vision” It will ultimately save you a big ton of grief Make it your lifelong mission
