Our Boys In Blue
Little Boy Rue,
Come blow your horn,
The sadist's in the prison,
He is making some porn.
But where is the Secretary
Who looks after the sheep?
"He's out on the E-Ring,
At the switch fast asleep."
William's Whimsical Words:
In all fairness, he offered to resign, but President Bush would not hear of it.
