Texas
Texans want to break away
From being part of U.S.A.
Big enough to stand alone,
They want a country of their own.
Petitions got a lot of names
Supporting these secession claims;
People hoping to secede
Need White House blessings to succeed.
Instead, they got a rousing No!
It seems they have no right to go,
For back in 1869,
The Court called Texas out of line.
They’ve wanted out for many years;
But still, our Union perseveres.
Why, even when they sent us Bush,
We didn’t think they’d earned a push.
Come on now, Texas, just play nice.
Nothing’s perfect – my advice
Is suck it up and let it rest –
Your destiny is manifest!
