Carnies in the White House
showing us the way.
We know the game is fixed,
yet we're lured to play.
Strong men lifting
Sifting sand,
Building, sculpting a new
Lay of the land.
Strong children exposed
Too much, too fast.
Finger painting names and dates
In new pourn grey grass.
Strong arms pushing
Legislation streamlined thru.
Special interests, slanted truths,
One sided testing, a filibuster or two.
Strong stands.
Strong beliefs.
Strong voiced Barkers
Trample the voice of the meek.
Strong world supported
Straight lines. Mathematical
Down beats on
One. Syncopation lost
Uni-hemospherical.
Strong medicines lost.
Not lost if never found.
Chopping, Searing,
A divine manifestearing mound.
A spot,
A clearing,
A pre-ordained, man-made tearing.
Carnies in the white house
Showing us the way.
We know the game is fixed,
Yet we're lured to play.
Step right up!
Have no fear.
There's a winner every day,
Three hundred and sixty-six
Days a year.
Everyone's a winner,
Every other day.
Thirteen months out of the year,
May to May.
Come one! Come all!
Strong or meek.
Everyone's a winner,
On the eighth day of the week.
Carnies in the White House
Showing us the way.
Game after game,
No win, no prize,
Yet we play and play and play and play and play and
play and play and play and play and play and play...
Gold trophy winner
