Lame Duck Limericks Archives | ||||||||
Can anyone try to explain Who's funding these record campaigns? I'm trying to hope & not feel like a dope But it's gnawing away at my brain. Is there really a chance for a change? Can everything be rearranged? Will our presidents tire Of building empire Or is everything now too deranged? Can we hope now, for something that's new? I want to believe, yes I do! Will the face of the hour Relinquish the power, Or is democracy, basically, screwed? _________________________________________ On a fine Bagdad morning McCain Went out for a stroll in the rain He just had an urge To see if the surge Was making a photo-op gain While he didn't go out all alone -there were soldiers, cameras, and drones- no if, ands, or buts the guy has got guts Bush and Rice never left the Green Zone And what did he see on the strand? What kind of view was at hand? Did Curious John Perchance stumble on The despair that we've sown in their land? Of all of the crap that they feed us Buzz words they use to defeat us Fallacies, lies, Attack ads in disguise The worst is the label "elitist". Flipping from channel to channel Bopping from panel to panel They all say the same thing, 'cause they're all channeling The same boss through the same corporate channels! An elitist is a Republican If words still have any meaning The billionaire lords And their talking head hordes And...oh yeah...Hillary Clinton |

The best you can say of McCain is he isn't George Bush, then again: The way he's behaving His war monger ravings It really ain't much of a gain. Can we ever get back what we've lost? What was gained at so high a cost? Or has that modern Rubicon, Of Emperor Neocon Been already sighted and crossed? Now Petraeus is up on the hill To ask that we be patient still. He just needs more money And a coating of honey So we can swallow his shit in a pill. |
