Fanatical Enforcement of the Law

Fanatical Enforcement of the Law

By Elton Camp

Because it was parked illegally on the street,
This vehicle with the zealous cop did meet
If anyone dares to use the “No Parking” zone, 
When he comes back, then his car will be gone

That it was a hearse and a funeral underway
Doesn’t matter for, “The law all must obey”
The pallbearers brought the casket out the door
But the hearse wasn’t parked there anymore
