Verse 1:
Hi, Billy Mays here with a special TV offer!

Watch me crush this bald, fat, foppish founding father!

I'll take my awesome auger and sow your Quaker oats!

I'll shoot your rhymes down like a regiment of red coats!

I'm the lord of the pitch and leader in home sales!

You're just a lumpy pumpkin who invented the mail!

Benny's got kite n' key, but you're in for a shock

When I strike you with bolts from my lightning rod cock!

Verse 2:
But wait there's more…!

[Billy Mays suffers a heart attack and dies on his second verse.]
