HP’s ‘Phone that’s to blame’

(Sung to the tune of “Home on the Range”)

(Click play to hear the song) Oh, find me that phone where the dirty rat drones

Where the ear of the journalist lay

Where always is heard some director’s sly word

And our lies are blabbed boldly all day Phone, phone that’s to blame

Where the ear of the journalist lay

Where always is heard some director’s sly word

And our lies are blabbed boldly all day How Patty was right, we need PIs and bright

Never mind about going too far

Just have them all tailed, and bug their e-mail

Our lawyers have not passed the bar Phone, phone that’s to blame

Where the ear of the journalist lay

Where always is heard some director’s sly word

And our lies are blabbed boldly all day It wasn’t our plan, but it’s all hit the fan

Now the feds they be starting to scream

Where it all goes from here, we’re beginning to fear

If only it were all a dream Hell yes we’d  exchange that old phone that’s to blame

Where the ear of the journalist lay

If only we could, we would swear to be good

But instead we’re all going away
