A fly on Oprah's wall.
I think I'll build an Oprah mall.
All of this money
And still no honey.
I'm bored, I think I'll buy Senegal....

A Fly On the Wall
I had a dream last night in bed
I was a fly on the wall overhead
But it was too real
No joy did I feel
I couldn't understand what was said!...

We have this guy who’s a covert spy.
This sneaky little runt is named Cy.
Like a fly on the wall,
this Cy can hear it all.
He knows all that goes on in this sty....

Larry's mother-in-law I want to see

Or is he a cad

She Really Did Get This Call
I wish I could be a fly on the wall,
  
When my poor old mother gets the phone call,

        “He’s here at the bar
  
        Quick bring us your car,

Your husband just got in a brawl”...

Fly Spy
As a fly on the wall of Larry's domain

I would witness first hand the cause of his pain

        Once I saw what I saw

        Larry's Mother-in-Law

I'm sure that  I'd never go back there again!...

If I were a fly on their wall. 
And heard about Adam’s big fall.
I’d say “God please try me.
I’ll do better than he
If I weren’t so unfairly small”.

I wish I'd been a fly on the wall

   When the 'other woman' got the call

       That he'd been untrue,

          Cheated on her too.

                Because a cheat is a cheat after all.

Prize Or Surprise
I spied inside walls to much surprise.
Sometimes with smiles, then tears, into rise.
Sometimes, some things, unheard,
Are better un-interred,
Truly this will never provide prize.

An old expression, “A fly on the wall”, Means the walls have eyes And ears to witness; What is happening. You want to know Who’s talking, what They say about You and others. You want to Be a “fly” “On the wall”. You know That they... Talk.

Fly On the Wall
Unlike the social butterfly
 I am rarely even seen.
For I'm much more tamed
 Than the rowdy teen.

Comfortably I sit and watch
 All the commotion unfold.
Listening to all the drama
 And stories that are told.

Although in the crowd
 I might feel a bit small...
No way do I mind being
 The fly on the wall....

Premium Member In a World Awry
You might learn a thing or two
About what you thought was true, 
If you were just a fly on the wall,
A listening device made to deceive
Those in secret chambers as they weave.

It's a story they will tell
Of super spies to weave a spell,
A web of lies to catch the fly
And leave you in a world awry,
Minions run by the global cabal....

Overheard by a fly upon the wall

   During Clinton's tete-a-tete with his moll

      Order extra salami

         And a tad more pastrami

            For my pizza on your next service call

Fly On the Wall
Fly sat on a wall, evening
hungry and thirsty it was
Wet sugar was near is a dish

It thought;
“If I can fly down and taste
just enough of that sugar.
All the hunger, all the thirst
will be off-loaded.
My limbs I’ll lick long
My wings too shall be store”

It did it.
Stuck the fly was -limbs, wings
It struggled and wept
End times came hugging...

To witness the secret conniving,
to hear of grand plans
made on behalf of others
‘For the good of all’ – 
the absurdity of it in the face of disinformation – 
the whispered schemes by the vain leaders. 
Ah, the illusion of significance in their small universes;
gaining nothing, understanding less. 
Yet, I long to be a witness to their follies;
I wish I were a fly on the wall.

A Fly On the Wall
Last night I had a funny dream,
It really made me laugh;
I dreamt I was a fly on the wall
As Jim Morrison had a bath!
I heard him sing his famous songs
That went to number one,
But when the bubbles in his bath dissolved
Was when I had great fun!
With all the myths that surround this star.
I can only say one thing,
With no bubbles left, I could tell,
Why he was called  "The Lizard King!"...

Fly on the Wall

I am the fly on the wall
I am seldom seen but I hear all
I watch your life like spectator sport
I want your love but always fall short
I am nothing special to win your heart
I am simply too plain we are worlds apart
I don't have your money or you're charm
I will never be the girl on your arm
I wish things were different I wish you knew
I wish that you loved me like I love you...

I Am Somebody
You call me this you call me that
I'm weak I'm nothing as a matter of fact
I look past you and walk the other way
You can't take my pride away
You can't bring me down because I will always stick around
I'm strong you see stronger then you would ever think
You say you know me, well who am I?
Am I a fly on the wall or just passing by
I'll tell you this and you can go
I am somebody, somebody you should know...

Fly On the Wall
The fly on the wall,
Hears me call,
Your name as,
You tame the dame.
You are driven insane,
Because nothing done,
Freaky with me is mundane.
The fly on the wall,
Knows your name.
The fly on the wall, 
Is eclectically entertained.
Our actions in the flies,
Mind is sweetly stained,
Because our ecstasy,
Is explained to that, 
Fly as a necessity,
And in all of its eyes,
Compoundly  good to see.

The End
Place the coins over my eyes,
and lay me down to sleep. 
This mortal coil has sprung its last,
its time for me to leave.

This time has been no time at all, 
its true they say it flyes, 
Id like to be a fly on the wall, 
to see the truths and lies. 

I was taught as a child that we die and move on, 
but i refuse to accept that is true. 
For as long as you live and as long as you love, 
i will live on through you....

If I was a fly on the wall
No matter how big or small
I’d know the news of the day
Before it gets buried away
I’d have the facts at hand
Before they get out of hand
I’d know just what to do
And tell the truth to all you
But the truth of the matter
Is that I’d likely be splatter
Because even the fly on the wall
Cannot be allowed to fly or crawl
And that’s where the truth is today
Squished like fly guts to our dismay...

If it takes a dollop of Dutch courage to French kiss an English rose would it make a lily-livered Indian giver look down his nose but with Yiddish chutzpah as a Spanish fly on the wall and luck o' the Irish you could Australian crawl and yet the Chinese fire drill it's still a safe bet and a Mexican standoff are not Russian roulette but who'd deliberately open the door for a Portuguese man o' war

The Mess We Have Made
Do you wonder what the Power above
Sees when He looks down on us below 
A planet once filled by nature’s hand
With clean air and water long ago.

And then man in his stupidity came
Pushed Mother Nature’s hand away
Upset the balance of ocean and air
Turmoil ‘n change were here to stay.

I would love to be a fly on the wall
And to hear just what He has to say
When He decides He’s had enough
Of careless man getting in her way....
