Of lies and money
the essence of politics.
It’s time for the truth.
It’s time for the truth
The whole truth, and nothing but
The tru-tru-tru-truth
“The tru-tru-tru-truth?
You can’t ha-handle the truth!”
Said Colonel Porky.
Said Colonel, “Porky?
Nyet, we said Gorky. Meet in
Gorky Park, Moscow.”
Gorky Park, Moscow,
Is now known as Dorky Park
Since you’ve been seen there
Since you’ve been seen there,
That new “in” dance club in town
Has become passé.
“Has become passé …”
Americans can’t say the word -
They stress the last é.
They stress the last é
In the word ‘cliché’, because
Otherwise it’s clish
Otherwise, its clish
gets caught in the damn zipper;
Hurts like bloody hell!
Hurts like bloody hell
When your eyeball falls right out
And you step on it
And you step on it
Better than stepping in it.
Or falling in it
Or falling in it…
That’s it, it must have fallen
Into my pocket.
Into my pocket
the money comes, but it leaves
almost as quickly.
Almost as quickly
As wind on Fujiama
I post a haiku.
I post a haiku
That isn’t raunchy or lewd;
Where’s the fun in that?
Where’s the fun in that?
Reading The Cat in the Hat.
I hate Dr. Seuss.
I hate Dr. Seuss
Clever art and funny words
Don’t belong in books
Don’t belong in books
My eyes, that is. Ever since
I got a Kindle
I got a Kindle
But I sent it back because
The porn was so lame.
The porn was so lame
The money shot was simply
A stack of nickels
