For the Millions He's Paid

Phil Mickelson is a fine golfer, one of the best
But his mouth just flunked its first diplomacy test

Said, 'Saudi executes people for being gay'
No way to talk for the millions he's paid

Now KPMG has stopped doing business with Phil
Perhaps for this sports star that's just the right pill

From the Saudis you'd think he'd have learned ~
Cut off your own tongue, you won't get burned
