Leading Tomorrow’s Youth

Instead of “Ladies and Gentlemen”

I said “Hello Heathens Galore”.

Now everybody knows my name

And I don’t get to teach preschool no more.

24 Hours Of Visibility And The Whole System Collapses…

I think for one day a year

All taxes should be ignored

And you’ll see how gas is a dollar less

And your check is twenty percent more

And as you drive your car on roads

With a single pothole, wonder

Why do we support “our side” so much

When both sides keep sucking us under?

I Bet Scissors Makes “The Rock” Their Spokesman

Sometimes life is sunny

And everything goes right;

Sometimes you’re the VP of Marketing

And decide to revamp Bud Light.

I Miss The 90’s

I remember when beer was manly

And women played women’s sports

And the internet had telephone cords

And kids went outside to build forts…

When a penny bought a tootsie roll

And a handshake was a deal

But nowhere in my memory

Were the politicians real.

I’m In A Sorry State

The was a Virginian from Idaho

Who brought from Alaska a pile of snow.

Iowa him a debt

Hawaii’ll pay? Don’t know yet

I’m Missouri-able, and might flee to Mexico.

Patty > Bun, etc.

Pizza’s pretty yummy

And hot dogs taste real nice

But I can do without the carbs

And even sans the spice.

Instead of all that bready stuff

What I really want to eat

Is meat covered in melted cheese

Then covered in even more meat!

Predicting the Future

The year was 2055

And Disney was somehow still alive.

Their greatest writer stood and said

“What if Black Panther was white instead?”

And coast to coast the people caved

As bloggers whined and critics raved

And I, at 60 years, just sat

Rewatching Shrek, and that was that.

America’s Great Mistake

Wild turkey

Powerful majestic bird

Bald eagles are overrated

Turkeys are tasty

And kind

Game: A – Commercials D+

Once again the footballs clashed

Between two well-paid teams

Who di athletic contest stuff

To countless fans’ screams

While corporations tried their best

To make us watch their ad

And all the Philedelphians

Are feeling pretty mad.

The winners were the chiefs, of course,

And also Jesus and beer.

Here’s to the beat Super Bowl ever

Until it happens again next year!

State of the Union Reaction

I think everything should be free

‘Cause I saw a speech on TV.

I’m glad that the rich

Agree they’re our bitch

And they’ll buy my whole wishlist for me!
