Good King GeorgieA Poem by STurnerThank you, no thank YOU, Mr. <cough> President
Good King Georgie When Georgie became king of late He’s done great things We will long appreciate First, he buys the president’s chair With 30 pieces of eight Then he spoke to us all In his state of union address Clean environment, he says Streams turned to silt and salmon killed Attempted to turn the northwest into a parking lot Clean energy, he says More motorcars to make greenhouse gases Turns the Earth into a stinking cesspool More gas, he says And speaking of gas, Pardon me, but I’ve lost count How many dead troops to the gallon? Freedom, he says Turned our Republic into a police state Give them democracy, he says And razes Leave no child behind, he says Let them be like me, he chuckles Selfish little cheats as dumb as rocks But read the small print Ethnic or different or suspect Need not apply Well, I have to end for now I’ve surely got to run Homeland Security’s banging at my door Wielding a can of mace and a very big gun But first, let’s remember Georgie became the king of late He’d done great things We will long appreciate © 2008 STurner |
