The PC Police in Seattle
Have singled out two offensive terms
Brown Bag Lunch and Citizen
The non-PC gene in me squirms
Brown Bag Lunch indicates color
And of course that means color of skin
For in days long gone by it was used to
Determine who’s out or gets in
And Citizen? That’s a stretch farther
You see residents aren’t always such
So Citizen ostracized many
And using that terms hurts so much
So if you are up in Seattle
Be mindful of terms that you use
Or you might be labeled a racist
And that is today’s PC news
