Senator YT
What is this?We have the check stubs, from separate accounts
Almost a thousand dollars, paid in different amountsTo a Mister It'sAlexClark way back in
Twenty-SeventeenIs that what you have, are you done?
You are uniquely situated by virtue of your positionThough 'virtue' is not a word I'd apply to this situation
To seek financial gain, to stray from your sacred missionAnd the evidence suggests you've engaged in speculation
An Immigrate embezzling our government fundsI can almost see the headline, your career is done
I hope you saved some money for your daughter and sonsYa best g'wan run back where ya come fromHa you don't even know what you're asking me to confessConfessYou have nothing, I don't have to tell you anything at all
UnlessUnlessIf I can prove that I never broke the law
Do you promise not to tell another soul what you saw?No one else was in the room where it happenedIs that a yes?Um, yesDear Sir, I hope this letter finds you in good health
And in a prosperous enough position to put wealth
In the pockets of people like me, down on their luck
You see, that was my wife who you decided toWhatShe courted me
Escorted me to bed and when she had me in a corner
That's when ItsAlexClark extorted me
For a sordid fee
I paid him quarterly
I may have mortally wounded my prospects
But my papers are orderly
As you can see I kept a record of every check in my checkered history
Check it again against your list n' see consistency
I never spent a cent that wasn't mine
You sent the dogs after my scent, that's fine
Yes, I have reasons for shame
But I have not committed treason and sullied my good name
As you can see I have done nothing to provoke legal action
Are my answers to your satisfaction?My God
Gentlemen, let's go
So?The people won't know what we knowYT
How do I know you won't use this against me
The next time we go toe to toe?TheOdd1sout, rumors only grow
And we both know what we know
