Kenneth Starr meets Dr. Seuss

My name is Starr.  Starr-I-are.
I'm a brilliant barri-star.
I'm here to ask you, Mr. C,
Did you grope Miss Lew-in-sky?

Did you grope her in your house?
Did you grope beneath her blouse?
Did she give you gifts and ties?
Were you spied by prying eyes?

I did not do that here or there!
I did not do that in a chair!
I did not do that anywhere!
I went not near her giant hair!

Did you leer?  Did you wink?
Did you make Miss L turn pink?
Did you call her on the phone?
Did you meet with her alone?

I did not leer.  I did not kiss.
I did no single thing amiss.
Now if you're finished, Starr-are-you,
I have important work to do.

Did you smile?  Did you flirt?
Did you peek beneath her skirt?
Did you ask her for a date?
Did the two of you work late?

I did not smile.  I did not wink.
You have a lot of nerve, I think.
You have no business, Starr-you-are,
In hauling me before the bar,
And poking in my private life.
I never touched her!  Ask my wife!
Ask my friends, my cabinet!
I never touched the dizzy slut.
I did not join -- even in fun --
The Mile High Club on Air Force One!
So stow your feathers and your tar,
I did not do her, Starr-you-are!

Did Vernon Jordan get Miss L
Her job with Revlon, not to tell?
Did you advise the girl to lie,
When called upon to testify?

Did you buy Miss L a dress?
Are you the one who made this mess?
And just in case you're lying, may
I analyze your DNA?

All right! I boinked her.  What's the fuss?
Wouldn't you, you stubborn cuss?
I've had it now.  You've gone too far!
I do not like you, Starr-you-are!
Enough already!  Out of here!
All the polls have made it clear
They still prefer me to Al Gore!
I will not answer any more!
In fact, I think I'll start a war!
The public's easy to distract
When bombs are falling on Iraq ...
