Pussy's In The Well
Ding, dong, bell,
The Country's gone to hell.
Who seized us by the tush?
Why, little Georgie Bush.
Who now will pull us out?
Of that we have some doubt.
What a naughty boy was he,
To imperil our democracy,
That never did him any harm,
But denied his father's second term.
William's Whimsical Words:
I have the greatest respect for the office of President of the United States of America, and do not imply that its current holder is either a ding dong or a pussy.
