There Were Some Crooked Men
There were some crooked men
Who cooked some crooked books.
They said all was well, you know,
And gave us knowing looks.
They hired a crooked accounting firm,
That had a crooked computer mouse,
And they all thrived together
With connections to the White House.
William's Whimsical Words:
Their mistake was choosing careers in business instead of politics. As politicians they would have been rewarded for deceiving most of the citizenry.
