L: I: E: Look, I Exaggerate

Listen to poem:
Look, I Exaggerate Political speech is how I masturbate I lie to your sense of right and wrong I blow smoke from my deceptive bong And sing you a liars song Try to make you believe Try my best to deceive I lie for political reprieve I know it's your pet peeve But please don't leave Before I have a chance to deceive It's your hope in freedom I wish to cleave Though I shall allow you time to grieve And realize my deceptions saturation Politics Is the speech of masturbation So get used to it Cause it's here for the duration A cultural icon Throughout the nation It's a sad annoying fascination To listen to your oral constipation And watch you gag On your own abomination L. I. E. (Look, I Exaggerate) Doesn't really have to be our fate Eric (and sometimes not)
