They all display Brilliant ideas Just up until  We vote them in They all speak  Truth Just up until We unmask the masquerade They all do Right Just up until We balance the scale They all hawk Goods Just up until  We unwrap inedible bads They all know Everything Just up until We ask a question They all claim Innocence Just up until We use a test kit They all see Clearly Just up until We have distant placards They all like Prosperity Just up until We have problems to solve They all hate Mediocrity Just up until We raise the standards They all play Well Just up until We kick a lone start They all work Hard Just up until We tune into the roadshow They all have Faith Just up until We need to feed a crowd ...
