"Alternative Facts" the truth belies, Often in "Fake News" the real truth lies, "Exaggeration", "Aggrandizing" In truth are other words for lying. The value of honesty seems lost, Sad truth is, at a terrible cost! To our kids now we must emphasise That Facts; the Truth, must Always Trump Lies, That by lying there's nothing to gain; That Truth cannot be held in disdain. From lies and untruths all must refrain To make Truth, Honesty, Great Again!

Truth Trumps Lies
"Alternative Facts" the truth belies, Often in "Fake News" the real truth lies, "Exaggeration", "Aggrandizing" In truth are other words for lying. The value of honesty seems lost, Sad truth is, at a terrible cost! To our kids now we must emphasise That Facts; the Truth, must Always Trump Lies, That by lying there's nothing to gain; That Truth cannot be held in disdain. From lies and untruths all must refrain To make Truth, Honesty, Great Again!
