Over the fence

Hi there! Yeah,  I'm fine,

All things considered.

I hear he's been caught at it again

Lying to the House. 

I hear what you're saying,  but

It's no good him keep saying sorry, 

It doesn't wash. 

I mean,  we all tell fibs now and again,

Only natural,  keeps us friendly,  

Keeps us sweet. 

But not about this, 

It's a betrayal of all he asked of us,

All that loneliness. 

I was lucky,  none of mine died, 

But my boy was hurting,  

Heart breaking along with his marriage. 

All I wanted to do was rush over

And give him a hug. 

But I couldn't,  wasnt in his bubble

Was I? That was his dad. 

So no,  I know I'm not without sin 

But he shouldn't work in a glass house

If he wants to go his own way

And lie to the rest of us. 

Mind you,  I've never trusted a politician, 

They never give a straight answer. 

This is just a bit more crooked than most.
