This is the way that the government works
In international relations
Under the lines is where true meaning lurks
When dealing the cards among nations
One’s never at ease representing a state
To relate openly all the facts
Often times when considering all that’s at stake
The less said’s often better the tack
When asked, Hillary spoke to the grieving star mom
At the grave where her son lay in rest
He was killed in Benghazi, attacked by a bomb
Based on hate against those of the West
‘Twas a rogue video clip that inspired the attack
Clinton said to the mom grieving so
It was later proved true but not all of the facts
Telling some but not all that was known
This response, partly true, but not all of the truth
Is quite typical DOS speech
Which in normal discourse would be thought as uncouth
Among diplomats that’s how they speak
