Truth in Advertising

Talk about oxymoron!
This one takes the cake.
When it comes to truth in advertising
There can be no mistake.
The two words shouldn't even be
In the same vocabulary.
'Caveat emptor', buyer beware;
Listen, but always be wary.
Competitors never tell the truth
Regardless of who takes the stand.
"I'm better!"  "He stinks!"
"Don't buy his product.
Buy ours. We think we're grand."
Each one accuses
The other of falsehood,
So, who knows which product to buy?
The only sure thing about advertising
Is that someone will surely tell a lie.
