No matter how some complain and bellow
they are exposed, each a trolling fellow
I'd look them in the eye
for telling one more lie
but I heard they're too busy eating crow

Old clichés are handy - when it comes to cars and people -

   Unaware of it,
 All night and all day.

Not to talk back, be polite, don't stare,

We prayed every night before we...

A melody that
No instrument can
