When you see the hanging chad
does it make your great heart glad
when you see those cracker folks
under counting blackman votes
does it make your great heart glad
when they go a counting chads
when the floridian folk go vote
do you see a sinking boat
when georgies hands a rub with glee
do you s'pose he's thinking green
nary a dif, you were heard to say
and since the votes were squandered yeah
where's your voice in praising loud
finding in confusion proud
and undercounted brain cell maybe -
or was this just a lawyers gravy!
this election shuddering beneath this cloud
where florida voters were used to votes
on ballots clear as poisoned brooks
with voting choices hidden meaning
is my message still deceiving
Nary a diff, you were saying
witch watching the lawyers now delaying
supreme and district courts a ruling
and legislative baffoons a dueling -
greater in amusement sure
than skirted performing baboons d'jure
is this what you planed for a better 'merca
is this what you hoped for, is this the mazurka
that thousands worked for?
If this is what you hoped to achieve
take your concern and your frown and just leave
take not!
a green and leafy bough
but a shoreline drenched in oily stew
and seabirds dipped in chaney's oil
and wildlands filled with drillers toil
and seashore dipped in muddy crude
I bet your proud of what you... DUDE! |
