The Lyrics
She didn’t yell or mew
At debate time.
Her patter stopped; the long-pause grew-----
She weren’t lyin’
’cause she were silent.
She just couldn’t bandy
No bullshit around.
Deer-in-headlights Jan B.
Couldn’t grandstand. . .clammed up—not a sound.
She didn’t yell into
The mic that time,
Air time.
She was mute,
Not astute,
Far from cute
Resolutely she’s cowed.
Then just dead air
For eternity;
Her act, not proud.
Can’t hear her!
But she did tell some beauts
Ere dead-air time.
At debate time.
Her patter stopped; the long-pause grew-----
She weren’t lyin’
’cause she were silent.
She just couldn’t bandy
No bullshit around.
Deer-in-headlights Jan B.
Couldn’t grandstand. . .clammed up—not a sound.
She didn’t yell into
The mic that time,
Air time.
She was mute,
Not astute,
Far from cute
Resolutely she’s cowed.
Then just dead air
For eternity;
Her act, not proud.
Can’t hear her!
But she did tell some beauts
Ere dead-air time.

Good parody John, but where did you find this obscure tune? (hehehe) ;D
Never agreed with anything she said! I heard someone say that she's as much of a sl** as Linda Tripp.
