Generic Political Discourse
You ask me why I think that way
and what makes me think it's true,
if I'm smoking something,
or if I'm sniffing glue,
if I believe the crazy things I've read,
or hear strange voices in my head.
You ask if I'm some kind of kook.
You tell me that I make you puke,
and suggest that I might be insane,
that the doctors found no brain,
or perhaps I have a rare mutation,
but to the jury, I say, "speculation!"
