Spin Masters

SPIN MASTERS SPINNING AWAY THE DAY Every moment I turn on the TV What do I see Nothing but liars laying down lies Spin Masters spinning spam of deceit Chanting The truth will set you free White is black Black is white Lies are true Truth is a lie Lies will set you free I see nothing But politicos Dropping down lies UN truths masquerading as the truth Oh so sincerely The lies spew forth so sweetly From their corrupted lips The toxic wastes Spree out of my TV set Infecting my soul With paranoid distrust And I vainly try I do try God do I try To the find The nugget of truth Buried deep in the dark, dank, dangerous Black, evil miasmic mists Given off By the talking heads on TV So I leave my house So full of doubt And wander about Looking for the truth Some semblance of hope And I look up And see a solitary cherry tree High up on a hill top street Infusing the air With its sweat ambrosia And I smile Knowing Someday soon The national nightmare Will be pierced by the light Of clarity and truth And the evil ones The body snatched aliens Inhabiting our leaders Will be banished
