Monkey for Congress 2008.


What Do Ya Say!

Editors note: Use of the above photo with this poem by the
author is not intended to demean any of our primate friends.

        You fix it, no, you fix it, no, you fix it.
        You try and figure it out ‘cause I quit.
        You hurt my precious feelings, so no.
        I’m not taking this anymore, I’m gonna go.

        Does this sound slightly familiar to you?
        Does it sound like our Congress, that whole crew?
        How in the world did all these people get there?
        They have us losing our minds and pulling our hair.

        They seemed so normal when they first went in.
        They changed so much since, where have we been?
        Why didn’t we see how corrupt they were getting?
        With all of their shenanigans and all their jet setting.

        I for one think something’s got to be done.
        Or we won’t have a country, absolutely none!
        I know, let’s switch places with them just for a day.
        They will be us, we will be them, what do ya say?
