Conspiracy Theorists - Get a LifeA Poem by Elton CampIt's all a big cover-up?Conspiracy Theorists: Get a Life By Elton Camp Conspiracy theories are merely illogical rot That says most events are due to some plot But they never explain just how or why The conspirators are so powerful and sly Scholars generally don’t believe such a thing Because conclusive evidence they don’t bring Contradictory evidence is explained away It was planted by the conspirators they say Outlandishly false such beliefs are seen to be Cranks or the lunatic fringe only can them see “But our views are being coved up,” they claim They’ve convinced others to believe the same As true theories, these claims don’t go very far Actually, it is only wild speculation that they are The mainstream report always works just as well And these “theories,” nothing useful do they tell How many people to the conspiracy must adhere And a whistleblower they never seem to fear But someone’s conscience would be in fright And he or she would bring the conspiracy to light If they should read this, I know what they’ll do “Look at that. He is in on the conspiracy too.” Conspiracy theorists are people we should avoid They are mixed up and likely some are paranoid
