William The Redactor 
will get to the bottom of it…

Asset’s dead, questions must be answered—
Why was he suicided instead of cancered?
Let’s limbo! Limbo!
How low can you go?
Barr is set so low in the bed of the swamp
Never mind the hot air, and all the pomp…

Waiting on reports from William The Redactor 
An Agency operative and ol’ subcontractor
Let’s limbo! Limbo!
How low can you go?
Barr is set so low in the bed of the swamp
Never mind the hot air, and all the pomp…

Boss Tweet’s consigliere and benefactor
An unconvincing truth and justice actor
Let’s limbo! Limbo!
How low can you go?
Barr is set so low in the bed of the swamp
Never mind the hot air, and all the pomp…

Quick, reduce 400 pages to 4 pages of spin
Play the people again like a plastic violin
Let’s limbo! Limbo!
How low can you go?
Barr is set so low in the bed of the swamp
Never mind the hot air, and all the pomp…

Uncharged individuals, ongoing investigations
Like other infamous New York strangulations?
Let’s limbo! Limbo!
How low can you go?
Barr is set so low in the bed of the swamp
Never mind the hot air, and all the pomp…
Never mind the hot air, and all the pomp!
