An Iou

An IOU or Changing of the Guard For things to be swell, does your head have to swell? And always have to be bright to ring the bell When you do it a special to buy will appear After a person has made it perfectly clear. It takes two fingers in one hand to form a "V" Which of course you know stands for Victory And long ago a situation kept on demanding We ended up having a Normandy landing. No matter how things are or may be hard They still have a changing of the guard; If in America up many things want to spruce Wait until a program will economically induce. Each country has their own characteristic But the one which makes me become ballistic Was a case by Scott which many at time dreaded Why now do people have to be beheaded? "Off with his head," it once was often said Now look at where this comment has led A bunch of sorry, lame losers literally to do; I personally myself recommend an "IOU."
