The Late Chairman Mao Tse Tung

You're facing a gun complete with barrels And of all things with firm holder quarrels! Chairman Mao would have laughed at you And kept repeating "No... No it's not true!" I guess, definitely, in their Chinese, Even if you had been a Taiwanese, "Why don't you reserve games of Squirrel!" If you were English and your name Darrell... I have a cursory look given Mao And the result - no schemed insult - but "Waow" A long braving of the unpopular, For it finding pillars; new formula: One might fully own one's shirts and trousers, For private accounts there shall be browsers, One's country first but not like Kennedy's Often voiced by takers of Cannabis... For their foes communism the hammer! I knew he'd said so not a slight stammer To Tito on the same ideas feeder Chairman was China's outstanding leaders Mao's last words: take your time don't be anxious A good advice but not for something vicious.
