Elephants and Asses
Elephants and Asses
By Franklin Price

Elephants and asses
It's oh so apropos
They represent the parties
We know that it is so
The elephant throws it weight around
And stomps feet to and fro
The ass refuses movement
To go where it should go
Seems to me that's how it is
Neither will cooperate
There's no negotiation
Both of them are second rate
Conservative or liberal
It's only just a name
The public are the referees
To officiate this foolish game
There are so many penalties
That's what the game is all about
How either makes a touchdown
Guess we never will find out
Both think they've won if there's a tie
At least the other's not the champ
If anyone cooperates
They're traitors to the other camp
The loser is this country
There will be no Super Bowl
Until the Elephants and Asses
Get their heads out of the hole
