Sir... At this very moment, your Indiana relatives are swindling you and yours out of your birthright. Out of roughly eighty-seven million, four hundred seventy-two thousand, thirty-three dollars, and sixty-one cents. I am here to tell you about a relatively cheap and simple court action that will make those millions... yours.

Caroline...

I have here some documents which will explain in further detail...
[FRED, spoken]
Caroline. I think you ought to read this.

They’re plain, clean, average Americans
A dress from K-Mart
A Ban-Lon shirt
You’re plain, clean, average Americans
And you deserve to eat
Your just dessert
They’re normal, boring Americans
Like most Americans
And I assert
This country will itch
To help you get rich
My pitch will be slick and expert
We’ll make your cousin, the millionaire
Eat dirt
