It Goes Without Saying

What we have is so fantastic

All we really need is branding
As to what was said or promised
There was some misunderstanding

Well, you may have thought you heard it

And you might think that you read it
But allow me to assure you
I never ever said it

And if somebody here wrote it

Then we all told him to spike it
I never ever spoke it
Or any sentence like it

I’ve a ready gift for language

And sometimes get rather glib
But I never made a promise
Or at worst, it’s just a fib

What I tell you in the future
You can certify and bond it
As to what I said beforehand
I suggest you get beyond it

There are some of you who get it

As I always knew you would
We use any means we have to
To achieve a greater good

And the message that’s essential

Deep in every word I’ve spoken
In the making of an omelet
There are eggs that must be broken

So from here on, no more surprises

Since I promise and decree it
Now that sort of should assure you
And I kind of guarantee it.
