Fraud Song
Lyrics by Patrick Porter C. 2012
You're a fraud
You draw sidewalks on the chalk
Fraud
Build a highway for a stop
Fraud
Cement windows to your wall
Fraud
Keep your fresh air in a jar
Hangman, hangman's gonna hang you
On a wet Saturday, and hand you to the sandman
Hey man, everyone is laughing
Cuz everybody knows there's no glass in your glasses
You're a fraud
Your jailcell's only got one bar
You're a fraud
Your crime is built out of a cop
Fraud
Mixing tie-dye with a mop
Fraud
Blowing bubbles out of pop
Hangman, hangman's gonna hang you
On a wet Saturday, and hand you to the sandman
Hey man, everyone is laughing
Cuz everybody knows there's no glass in your glasses
You're a fraud
