There once was a man named Powell,
Who said, “Institutions take time to grow,
But they can crumble in a blow,
With patience and effort we must cajole,
Or see them destroyed in one fatal swole.”
There once were some oil prices quite high,
Rose sharply up into the sky,
After the war, more they gained,
3% on Monday obtained,
Now they soar, reaching for the bye.
There once was a president who
During an interview, he did show
His spelling skills were quite low
But he laughed and said “oh no”
And the whole world got quite a blow
There once was a game from the White House,
Shoot ’em up, anger did arouse,
Critics and base were mad,
The president was sad,
For controversy he had to douse.
There once were some voters so loyal
To their candidate, they’d be royal
But now they are broke
No more money to soak
Their devotion is starting to spoil
The president hit back at critics,
Frustrated by his lack of logistics.
Ending the war with Iran,
Was his complex plan,
But progress was slow, he admits.
There once was an economist bold
Who wanted the US to be sold
For a thorough purging
Was what he was urging
His ideas were quite uncontrolled
There once was a late-night host, you see,
Who won a Peabody for his spree,
Defying the president and the FCC,
His sharp wit and humor so free,
He truly deserved the award, gee!
There once was a land called America
With a justice system, oh what hysteria
Two-tiered it may be
But the gap we now see
Is an extreme that could cause mass hysteria
There once was a post in a hurry,
It ran into turbulence all blurry,
It shook and it wobbled,
And then it just toppled,
Leaving chaos in a big flurry.
