Told him “You go home!”
but he ignored me, instead
going to my house!
Going to my house?
You’d better bring lots of cheese
Or you shall not pass
“Or you shall not pass”
Was spoken by a wizard
In mis-translations
In mis-translations,
Churchill sounds much less stirring:
“Fight them on peaches”?!?
“Fight them on peaches!”,
Cried the fruit growers en masse.
But prices stayed low.
But prices stayed low
Thanks to the valiant efforts
Of some bureaucrats
Of some bureaucrats
I have little to say, but
there they go again
“There they go again.”
What Reagan grumbled under
His breath in debates
His breath in debates
Was an argument that felled
Many opponents
Many opponents
Of the mayor agree that
He was off his nut
He was off his nut
Was cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs

Mad as a hatter,

Killing John Wilkes Booth

until Claire dropped by
Until Claire dropped by
I could not know the future
But Ms. Voyant could
But Ms Voyant could
Spin a yarn as fanciful
As any tart could
As any tart could
Turn out to be raspberry
I took one, hoping.
I took one, hoping
That no one would see me steal.
Now I can’t raise bail.
Now I can’t raise bail
But I can still raise hell, Mac
Just ask my neighbors
Just ask my neighbors
I’m getting much better at
Playing the cymbals
