Refrain:
Twist and Spin
Twist and Spin
Political lies
don’t count as sin
Repeat refrain after each verse
Our goals are good
our aims are true.
that makes it OK,
whatever we do.
We tell lies
we spread smear
we yell fire
to stir up fear
We take a truth
and exaggerate
so Dems look bad
and we look great
Up is down
and black is white
If we say it often
that makes it right
We take words
and twist them round
till what they meant
is no longer sound
Conspiracy was
a fact we knew
now it’s a sign
of a crazy you
Patriotism was
yours and mine
now it’s a weapon
used to malign
Looks that fool
words that buzz
create a world
made of fuzz
Be sure to look
shiny and clean
then underneath
be dirty and mean
A Closer Look Here, There and Everywhere
