There's one born every minute...

  THERES ONE BORN EVERY MINUTE
AUXILIARY FOOLS MARCHING...
  WE PATRONS OF TRUST...
  ABSENTLY DANGLE THE KEY.
UNMINDFUL OF LAZY THEIVES.
PROCLAIMING OUR NAIEVETE,
  WITH MORE EAGER SINCERITY...
  THAN AN EMMY WINNING NEWSCAST.
DETAILS AT ELEVEN.


  THE SUCKERS
  SMILING IN THE FACE OF FAILURE
AND SMILING WE THRONG...
  THOSE MINIATURIZING SOFAS.
AND DOZING DREAMS OF JUSTICE,
THAT TIP OUR IMAGINARY SCALES.


THERE'S ONE BORN EVERY MINUTE.
  THE SUCKERS AND FRONT LINE FOOLS.
    THE ARMIES OF THE OBLIVIOUS.
    WE WILL NEVER LEARN....
BUT WE WILL ENDURE.
FERRETING STRNGTH FROM HUMILITY...
TO EARN... OUR MOMENTARY BIRTHRIGHT.
