Souper Report - Washington

Here’s your roaming reporter, the Average Joe, Always reporting, always on the go. I’m reporting today on the impending battle, As state troops amass in the city of Seattle. Much to the surprise of our neighbors up North, The state of Washington is marching forth To capture Vancouver Island and Victoria city Because, being Canadian, she’s much too pretty. “We’ll just extend the longitude in a straight line; Gerrymandering is accomplished all of the time”, Says the proud Governor of the Evergreen State, Hoping the Mounties rally too late. “Victoria, for Canada, is too far south Sitting right dab in the middle of Puget Sound’s mouth, To Washington state she rightfully belongs And we shall take her with a rallying throng. “British Columbia can find a new capitol city. Vancouver, from the Olympics, everyone knows is so pretty. Just give us Victoria without any fight To keep peace between us, you know it’s just right.” So off I now ride in this navy of ferries On a surprise attack with a border to vary Armed to the teeth with passport in hand Which all of us need now to enter this land. When next I am able to send a report to you I’m hoping this seizure is successfully through And Washington State will have Victoria to claim As a city of her own, adding more to our fame.
