Written November 8, 2000, day after election night
and the beginning of the fraudulent presidency
It’s all up to you and me (or so we thought)
just how it should be
Do we really want some mindless idiot
running our whole country
Some clown with a dunce cap
playing games and tricks
with all that’s precious
in the Human condition
It’s a cold steel world
and Big Industry
reigns as King
controlling the Global Economy
and the well being of the little people
their not-so-loyal subjects
And Big Industry rules
the Presidency
I guess that’s why
they want some mindless idiot
who will do exactly as he is told
But people really fall
for his rhetoric
and used car salesman
persona
Especially the unsophisticated
mass of Middle America
who aren’t so concerned
with the bigger issues
or even aware
All there is to go on to decide
are those brain-stimulating TV ads
and of course he had more of those
than his more Liberal opponent
and so it goes…we soon shall know
