Why do you try to pull the wool over my eyes?
Others can see your own hypocrisy 
Often telling blatant lies 
Life is for living, 
You need to get a life!

Jan, I think this fits quite nicely with the wool theme, and I can think of a few people we both know that would fit this description. Good one!
