Poetry: Politics

by Theresa Cobb

Created on: July 23, 2009

Michigan's movin' on up!

An' it ain't no big surprise!

Cheboygan's unemployment's

Reached a national high!

Yeah! We're movin' on up!

To the biggest of all lies!

They're keepin' what they Promised

Our high school grads!

Gov'ment Motors took da Stimulus!

Chrysler nabbed Fiat's ring!

Ford went flyin' back ta Ol' Detroit

Holdin' on tight to his 'stang!

Now we playin' in da TARP league

Soon dere won't be nuthin' left

And if them Dems, Get their Way

It's a carbon tax that we'll pay!

Michigan's movin' on up!

Granholm's blown us all away!

Bart Stupak's given summer jobs

to the foreign visa crowd

Yeah! We're movin' on out!

All the smart ones' leavin' town!

An' John Cherry thinks we're

buyin' another round!
