Words Are Elastic

Politicians when attacked tend to deny everything That way there's always a little doubt as the arrows sling A political tactic Words are elastic Stretch them here, stretch them there, and the birdies do sing

The birdies are singing, but nobody is listening. :( Because everybody continues to speak louder than love, without any mindfulness. You've been missed sir. (Big man hugs)
