The Glenn Beck version of "Both Sides Now"--sing at your own risk in public!

GLENN BECK SINGS "BOTH SIDES NOW"

1.
Breaking stories soon grow cold
Yesterday’s news is so old
Unless it gets “newly” told
I’ve looked at news that way

But some at Fox said I had changed
They I’m weird, they say I’m strange
And some said I was half-deranged
They saw my show that way

I’ve looked at news from both sides now
From true and false and still somehow
It’s my illusions I recall
I really don’t know news….at all.


2.
Beans are white and beans are green
They give us gas, they keep us lean
When they are jelly, they taste keen
I’ve looked at beans that way

But I’m not rich from beans I’ve sold
I’ve gotten rich by touting gold
Organics do not fit the mold
For fans held in my sway

I’ve looked at beans from both sides now
From white to green, and still somehow
It’s Goldline’s paychecks I recall
I really don’t know beans…..at all


3.
Shit is brown and shit is green
And several colors in between
And every version I have seen
Stinks in some bad way

But now they say the shit is me
I have no credibility
I pled with Fox on bended knee
But they sent me away

I’ve looked at shit from both sides now,
From brown and green, and still somehow,
It’s shit’s strong odor I recall
I really don’t know shit……at all.

But so far, no Beck fans have made any threats.
