Our Nation Can Ill Afford
Dubbyah Bush is most usually wrong
For his mistakes, we pay the bill
As he sings his arrogant songs
Our nation slides downhill
But those who aspire to office
While running their campaign
Unlike Bush, when they err and go amiss
It brings them much disdain
Though their slips can be trifles
Like little blips on the TV screen
Opponents aim their rifles
Shooting verbal bullets to demean
As issues fall by the wayside
Regrettably, for those who care
Their purpose to deride
No matter how unfair
With issues masked or ignored
Our Democracy barely stays afloat
Our Nation can ill afford
An uninformed-unintelligent vote
