Man Erects Statue of Himself

Man Erects Statue of Himself By Elton Camp In front of his own house it’s placed No public park has been disgraced Some seem to think it odd or funny But he’s spending his own money But if public funds he had used He could then rightly be accused But as it is, as far as I can see Nobody else’s business can it be There are many who like to criticize Finding it somehow wrong in their eyes In fact, I just think I might do the same As bronze testimony to my good name Passers-by will see it standing there If they don’t like it, what do I care!
