The Truth

My mother-in-law is the sweetest person
You will ever wanna meet
She finds the hungry people 
And gives them food to eat

She's always kind to animals
And little children too
She never ever yells at me
Or tells me what to do

Did I mention she is beautiful?
She's as pretty as can be
I don't know how old she is
But she looks like twenty-three

All those things I've said before
Well, I was only kiddin'
I really think the world of her
I just choose to keep it hidden

She's got to be the smartest woman
This world has ever seen
She would never even hurt a fly
She's really not that mean

I guess that's all I needed to say
So I probably need to go
My mother-in-law is a wonderful woman
I just wanted you to know


Ok, I said what you wanted me to, Now put the gun down and leave me alone, you crazy 

old hag
