My name is Lying Tongue.
I have done nothing wrong.
    I prevaricate and prevaricate
    Because of Truth! whom I hate.
With Truth I have tried to make
        amends,
But he refuses to be friends!

I have traveled the world over:
Paris, Moscow, Tokyo, Dover ---
    Everywhere! --- I've been received
        with open arms;
    People just love for my charms;
That's why, with Truth, I will never see
Why he won't shake hands with me.

As it is, tho, I am happy with my fate;
Why, I really haven't got a single
        complaint.
     O sure, with Truth I'd love a truce,
     But I'm not about to be a dumb
        moose.
So, in a nutshell, then, all in all, I have
        brung
Peace, peace, and MORE peace, or my
        name ain't Lying Tongue.
