Walter Mitty-Like Dreams
The US President is everywhere and everything, it seems
At least he is, in his Walter Mitty-like dreams
Racing to Ground Zero the very next day
Just as false as his appointment to the US Naval Academy
The great man saw the bridge in Pittsburgh collapse
Since he wasn't there, it must have been on his app
Said he was born where his grandpa died in Baltimore
Though Joe was born in Pennsylvania, if you're keeping score
Claimed to be an activist in the civil rights movement in the sixties
Well, he WAS a lifeguard at a segregated pool down in Dixie
Bragged that he cut the Federal Deficit by $1.7 trillion
As it actually increased by $10 trillion, that's almost a zillion!
And, of course, he taught 'Political Theory' for four years at the U. of Penn
Just like he was right there with Daniel in the Lions' den...
I'd like to see old Giapetto create a 'Pinocchio-Joe Biden' puppet
With a twelve-foot long carrot for a nose to stuff it
