The Daily Ruse
Magnify people's lowest moments
Then embellish to the extreme.
Ignore all of their accomplishments.
Then beat that same drumbeat.
If that doesn't work, sow a juicy lie.
Try and spark a blazing fire.
Pull the tongue from the truth
twist -turn -edit - splice.
Spread more garbage-attract the mice
and you call yourself the news.
You're nothing but a political tool
A weapon of mass division.
Close-minded to other opinions.
Race baiting for the sake of ratings.
You carry the banner of civil war.
Stomping stars and stripes galore.
You're nothing but a ratings whore.
