"Mr. Teleprompter?

“Mr. Teleprompter”
-to the tune of “Mr. Telephone Man” by New Edition

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

When I speak to a crowd
And talk about hope and change
I miss you when you are gone
‘Cause it all comes out strange

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

I wish I could speak from my heart
Because I’ve got some great things to say
But I know I need your words
TO lead America astray

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

When you’re not around I talk about bowling
And how our troops kill and plunder
But what else am I supposed to say
The Constitution’s six feet under
Oh! they just can't trust me anymore

[SPOKEN]:
Please teleprompter
See what you can do
I always look to find where you are
But when I just can’t read your lines
Uh, umm, er, er, umm, uh, ahh, er, ahem.
I am forces to think of something to say
I'm pretty sure I’m pretty clueless without you

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

Mr. Teleprompter
There's something wrong with my lines
When you’re not around
I get it wrong every time

Must be a wire loose somewhere
I give you all my love and attention
I just can't take this no more
This situation blows my mind
When I just can’t read those lines

I try looking for notecard
I can't get no cooperation
Is the system on the blink
Why can’t you just tell me what to say
Ahh baby
I just can't take this anymore

Help me out
Please Mr. Teleprompter
Help me out
Please Mr. Teleprompter
