Spoilers: Mulder's hearing in Redux II

A Deviation from the Norm

Gentlemen, I have a warning for you all

Heed these words, so that you don't stumble and fall…

Section Chief Blevins was not like us

In times of trouble, we don't panic or fuss

Mulder knows of our crimes

He's pointed them out so many times

And yet we let him rant and rave to his heart's desire

And allow to Bureau to think him a liar

But Blevins couldn't handle it when he was exposed

He broke into a sweat, and was no longer composed

At the hearing when Mulder named Blevins

He couldn't hide his guilt from the panel or the heavens

His silent confession of guilt

Endangered the project we had built

He stepped from the darkness of his shadow

And allowed his cover to blow

To his office, he ran in retreat

But that's where he and death would meet

This was the consequence for a mistake so careless

One we never fail to immediately address

Expose yourself; let everyone know you're involved

And we'll simply dispose of you, problem solved

In every way, our project breaks the law

That is why we can't afford a single flaw

Among us, Blevins took the form

Of a deviation from the norm

Gentlemen don't make the same grave mistake

Sounds harsh, I know, but it's for your own sake
