Coy McCoy's Devious Ploy Lyrics

In a fancy private school, in rural Illinois

Everybody knew ninth-grader Coy McCoy

He submitted homework written by "the Wiz"

The teachers let it slide cause his dad ran the biz

And there was this song known to every schoolboy

Coy McCoy's devious ploy

Bringing you down brings him joy

Stand in his way, and he will destroy

With a Coy McCoy's devious ploy

Between walls marked by ivies, in echoing halls

He would tell vile lies to get favor with the girls

Badmouthing his mates, if they stood in the way

He finished with Cum Laude but honor went astray

Coy McCoy's devious ploy

Bringing you down brings him joy

Stand in his way, and he will destroy

With a Coy McCoy's devious ploy

In a sea of gray cubicles, in hushed down tones,

Corporate politics is the realm of office drones

Experience in these arts shot him near the top

Stomping on colleagues, impossible to stop

Aiming for the pinnacle

Brazen and cynical

Another wolf has closed the lids

And McCoy's career quickly hit the skids

Coy McCoy's devious ploy

Bringing you down brings him joy

Stand in his way, and he will destroy

Until the more powerful set the decoy

Sitting on the sidewalk

Of the Main street bricks

Coy now scrapes a living

With cheap parlor tricks
