Truth Is a Fungible Thing

PRESIDENT CRENSHAW
Truth is a fungible thing
Trust me, I know what I sing
Just yell 'it's fake news!'
Then they'll change their views
Truth is a fungible thing

Facts are a messy affair
So I pull them out of thin air
It helps to confuse
Claim you win when you lose
Facts are a messy affair

What's a little white lie, or Twitter well-placed
If it keeps voters still on your team?
Promises made are so often delayed
Just learn not to say what you mean

Truth is a pliable thing
More like a bungie cord spring
Don't fret or regret
It's more fun when you stretch it
Disinformation is king

Honesty is a relative thing
With an often nonsensical ring
Sometimes indefensible
Or incomprehensible
Honesty's a relative thing

Truth has a malleable side
I don't even know when I lied
A falsehood forgivable
Makes life more livable
Truth has a malleable side

What's a little white lie, or Twitter well-placed
If it keeps voters still on your team?
Promises made are so often delayed
Just learn not to say what you mean
I never say what I mean!
