Common Hoax

Daisy, speak to the recorder
 I refuse to forget
 Smooth television reporter
 Helping the fiction spread
 One step lower down the stairwell
 Is this brief worth the wreck
 Crudely countered by discussion
 Wrenching the final check
 Soak in the storm we made
 Terminal charade
 A vision I had
 Where you chose to stay
 Messenger, you speak
 From the cherry oak
 What are lovers then
 But a common hoax?
 Soak in the storm we made
 Terminal charade
 A vision I had
 Where you chose to stay
 Monitor, you hear
 From the cherry oak
 What are lovers then
 But a common hoax?
 Lobby so surveyed
 Hint of no virtue
 It will kill my soul
 It will kill yours too
 Daisy, speak to the recorder
 I refuse to forget
 Smooth television reporter
 Helping the fiction spread
 If the hour is predictive
 What will happen to you?
 When the picture is defective
 It all comes into view
