Who's the most important man this country ever knew? Do you know what politician I have reference to? Well, it isn't Mr. Bryan, and it isn't Mr. Hughes. I've got a hunch that to that bunch I'm going to introduce: (Again you're wrong and to this throng I'm going to Introduce:) Barney Google, with the goo-goo-goo-ga-ly eyes . Barney Google bet his horse would win the prize. When the horses ran that day, Spark Plug ran the other way. Barney Google, with the goo-goo-goo-ga-ly eyes eyes.
Barney Google, with the goo-goo-goo-ga-ly eyes . Barney Google had a wife three times his size She stood Barney for divorce Now he's living with his horse

Dale: Great! And as such a polybard might be the excessive ornamentation of a word horse.
