So this is my response
to a sticky question
You tell me, tell the truth
Is that truth with a little t?
It depends on where you're standing
And how you see and what you see
David gives it four stars
Margaret gives it one
Everyone's a critic
When it's all said and done
We need to take it philo
sophically
Because you'll often have a different
truth to me
There's another sort of truth and
it's one we like to see
It's less about opinion and
more about integrity
We like it in our politics,
we like it in our law
We like to know we're getting what
we thought we're paying for
That sort of truth can be a loaded gun
Slip and there is damage to
be done
Well then next you've got your abso
lute an d universal truth
That conversation killer at your
Sunday barbecue
The zealots and the godless,
well they all want to have their say
Agnostics in the middle have
got 50 bucks each way
Truth has got a lot of subtle hues
And that can help you to know
which one you should choose
So I'll say this with a conscience
that is clear
You look gorgeous in that new dress dear
