Blake, Blake,
for heaven's sake!
A stud like you
(see photo view)
knows what to do.
(How to vote, too!)
But women-folk—well,
from what I hear tell,
if you can't refute 'em
you want to shoot 'em?
(That harassment report,
you settled out of court?
That kind of sex is
what y'all do in Texas?)
That kind of sex is
what y'all do in Texas?)
Use charm and be winsome.
That's how you convince 'em.
Make pals with them gals
from different locales.
And you will note
now they get to vote
gals hold to the tenet
they belong in the Senate!?
And once they gets in
(hold onto your Stetson),
they won't always do
what guys tell 'em to.
Though it is a trevail,
you will prevail.
