Some Folks Will Believe Anything

Some Folks Will Believe Anything

By Elton Camp


Apparently there is no tale too absurd
That some won’t believe what’s heard

That Kennedy was killed by the CIA
Some believe it was done just that way

A UFO with alien bodies was found
For sixty years facts kept underground

That Elvis Presley is alive & hiding out
Some people haven’t the slightest doubt

Others think the moon landing was fake
The pictures in the desert NASA did make

The holocaust never happened some say
And the Jews just made it look that way

In the tabloid a shocking picture will appear
President with alien whispering into his ear

The most gullible will then proceed to say,
“I always knew it would be done that way.”

With such people sense and logic don’t apply
Can’t reason with them, so don’t bother to try
