A POEM SENT TO ME BY A READER
Help Is On the Way
There is a Judgment Day

The Presidents is a liar
His Cabinet is all knaves
the judges sit like emperors
Accepting accolades

But the worst I’ve saved for last
cause they are, the Congress of the USA
they work for you and me

Now don’t ya worry mamma
and don’t ya worry son
the guverments here to help ya
and the fun has just begun

The banker and the lawyer,
and judges they are all the same
But the Congressmen and Senators,
Now they are the ones to blame.
So get em where it hurts and vote their jobs away
else the guverment is going to help ya
all they want is to make ya pay

There’s Alcatraz and Folsom but Leavenworth is the best
it’s just the place to send em to take a little rest
they have stole and lied and robbed and now they want us to pay
Cause the guverments here to help us
Don’t that take yer breath away?

I reckon I’ve about expressed my sentiments at last
I see that election time has passed.
But don’t ya know the bastards can’t be fired or sent away
they swear they are going help us every April judgment day.

The funny thing about it all, I never knew
we needed so much help to carry on and struggle through
and more is the thought that just perhaps on next Election Day
well get em where it hurts and vote their guverment jobs away
