Script
Now, this is a story all about how
Nixons life got twisted upside down
And Id like to take a minute
Just sit right there
And well tell you how Nixon fell off his chair
In Yorba Linda, Cali born and raised (Fact 1) (History).
In the white house was where he spent most of his days
Everything was smooth until Watergate
There were five men who were caught breaking in real late (Fact 2) (History)
They were a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started making trouble in the DNC (Fact 3) (Watergate info).
Ron Ziegler, Press Secretary, was not contempt
He said they committed a third rate burglary attempt (Fact 4) (Watergate info).
Daniel Ellsberg, he had Nixons homeboys fooled
They released the pentagon papers to the world (Fact 5) (History).
They said that the US enlarged the scale of V War (Fact 6) (History).
The plumbers tried to stop the leaking so they were not poor (Fact 7) (History).
But Nixon screwed it up
He used the plumbers to give him much help
He got info to be knowledgeable about (Fact 8) (Watergate info).
Nixons whole staff found out
Nixon had a tape-record just to get by (Fact 9) (Watergate info).
Is he the type of guy that they just let it all fly?
I dont think so
He made a decision
That big mistake gave him a huge revision (Fact 10) (History).
