Patented and perfected
All the right ingredients
Customized and manufactured to specification
in the right environment
in the right quantity,
FDA approved
And physician prescribed
Packaged and delivered
to homes and businesses…
Love as a product,
If love can be sold
in capsules, bottles and tin cans,
At every street corner, in shops and online,
Advertised in Newspapers, TV, Radio and Internet…
Love can spread everywhere
carried in pockets and purses,
Love will be a potent antidote
to the venom of hate.

Good friends and also those that I don’t know,
I have a New Year’s dream I want to share.
It’s not one very typical although
it’s something about which we all should care.
I want the world to wake up to the truth
about the health care systems many use.
You see, I have become somewhat a slueth
discovering new things that are a ruse.
We’re living in the best and worst of times.
Health systems with which many of us live
are flawed; the toll for death by doctors climbs
for errors made and bad advice they give.
Big Pharma’s sheep, they write prescriptions for
bad drugs that bring more sicknesses than we
could ever have imagined years before.
I know this truth because they got to ME.
Big Pharma buries worthy remedies
or paints them in bad light. Go read online
the lies they tell! If you have a disease,
things FDA-approved are far from fine!
The FDA are puppets; see the proof
in foods they recommend for us to eat!
Don’t let yourself be victim to a spoof.
I dream of a new year free from deceit.

god forbid
some people
cried and some
people sighed how
but not just how but why
am i
it seems
delinquent
or delinquently
casting out my son
to a world
where weird
faults are found
in every thing even
how your child thinks
where
where were
where were the
parents parentally
think
about
changes that
may have come
from chicken Mc
Nuggets
to Chick-fil-
A or processed
patties that can
but not pass the FDA
i
i am
proud
to say that
my son is free range
flax oil tastes royal says jim
he will drink quite a lot no whim
fda deems fit
his liver wont quit
alas friends we buried him.
When I was a kid, if I got a cut,
My mother would grab the glass vial
And slather a swath of no other stuff but
Mercurochrome; that was her style.
Inside of the bottle a thin tube of glass
Was for dipping and coating with goo.
Then you dabbed it on so that no germs would amass
And the medicine knew what to do.
Every household did stock it, like aspirin and Vicks
(VapoRub, used if we had a cold),
But the FDA sometimes gets wise and restricts
Certain products which stop being sold.
That’s the way things went down in Mercurochrome Land.
It’s been years since it’s legal to buy it;
Though its mercury content, we now understand,
Isn’t healthy, some still would deny it.
It’ surprising to me that what once was assumed
To be helpful can lose its cachet,
So perhaps with Purell use we all might be doomed
As our safeguards it withers away.
All I knew was pain
The way a fall bruised torn leg remained
Intact back together again
I stand
No crutches to hold
Affirmative message made morals to grow
not related
Generated
Injections made whole
Inserting manufactured drugs FDA protested and sold
Bold laced given mysteries
Blindsided consumers greed
Elevated markets crash dummy dense
Signals back washed make no sense
Now nothing created something else
Revealed dusted books left on a shelf
Stand back hold tight pull back design
Masqueraded missiles fly in the sky
Lost power tried again
Frame regained new mission the games changed
(To the tune of 'Send in The Clowns’)
Why aren’t we rich, we made a pair?
Looking at me on the ground,
While still standing there
Send in the clones.
Isn't it bliss, don't you approve?
I’ve got some new DNA
Who cares if we’re sued?
Where are the clones?
Send in the clones.
The government says that they don’t agree,
Still checks from the FDA come directly to me
Making a person again, changing their hair,
A face without lines;
Just a little repair.
Don't you love sham?
A slight travesty,
I thought that you'd want what I want,
Stem Cell mockery
But where are the clones
There ought to be clones
Quick send in the clones
What a surprise!
Who could foresee
I thought I was so unique
Now thirty of me!
Why only now can I see
That you've drifted away?
I’ve doubled life on this earth
In one single day
Why aren’t we rich, we made twelve pair?
I see myself all around
Just look over there and there and there
And where are the clones
Quick send in the clones
Don't bother, they're here.
Here is a story that’s hard to forget
A beauty skin product from an old barnyard pet
He calls it Heal Fast and it’s made from pig lard
From the fat little pigs that he kept in his yard
It heals anything from acne to burns
And of jars that he’s sold, he has had no returns
You rub it on wounds or places you chafe
No proof that it works or that it’s even safe
And in spite of the fact it’s not tested so far
He’ll bottle it up and send you a jar
Sure, he’s working with doctors who’ll call FDA
And give them their findings about any day
But until that day (and this isn’t a joke)
You’re buying what’s known as a Pig in a Poke
Another true story from your old Uncle Mike
After receiving approval from the FDA,
high fructose corn syrup replaced cane sugar one day.
The world market price of sugar went sky high.
The company thought they would give it a try.
The move significantly lowered the production cost.
However, the most ardent fans thought something was lost.
The world’s most popular soft drink earned a lot of fame.
Somehow, many thought the taste was not quite the same.
They still use cane sugar at production plants in Mexico.
Their soft drink today is the same as it was years ago.
So some people import the stuff from below the border in the south.
It’s the only kind that will ever enter their mouth.

Calamari
Have you heard the latest about calamari
If you haven’t yet eaten, stop now or be sorry
Rumors abound – maybe cheek in tongue
Of a gross switcheroo of squid and pig bung
A friend’s cousin’s friend’s sister once dated
A guy from a meat packing plant, so it’s stated
Because of the cost of the great tasting squid
That is exactly what his packing plant did
It’s kind of disgusting but plausible still
When you’re short on a product but have orders to fill
Battered and fried to a cute little ring
Pork guts or squid – it looks like either thing
But order it out and look closely to see it
They both look the same so it just might be it
Or set up a fryer and conduct your own test
Is fried calamari or deep-fried bung best
And if the FDA wants to end the disputes
They can simply approve the deep-fried pork poop chutes

Food
What do you eat
When you eat what you like
Here are some clues
From your pal Uncle Mike
Mushrooms
According to the FDA
Maggots and mites are really OK
While maggots won’t hurt you
They’re not appetizing
And flavor of mites is really surprising
So pick them yourself
Make sure they’re OK
And don’t leave this task
To the old FDA
Chewing Gum
Gum contains lanolin
And that comes from wool
It’s an oily secretion
And that is no bull
So each time you chew
You’re chewing sheep sweat
And that is as gross
As your chewing can get
Vanilla Ice Cream
If you read the label
You may see castoreum
And that’s a secretion
From a beavers old bum
The FDA says
It is generally safe
But its use in my ice cream
Just makes me chafe
“Natural flavoring” is how it is listed
The FDA’s humor
I would say is quite twisted
Call the FDA we are poisoning Mommy
Wind to remind us she does breathe
Sun to remind us she does burn
Rain to remind us she is thirsty
Ice to remind us she does freeze
Support to remind us she cares for us
Call the FDA… before she goes away
Have you had or seen teenagers,
who abused drugs like marijuana
and became truant and unruly?
That same teens could be
exposed to temptation again,
if they worked in a hospital,
where the supply of medical
marijuana is kept in glass cabinets.
And we think that modern vampires
are fiction as Drucula's legend seems;
there are indeed doctors and nurses
who will steal blood to satisfy their urge,
and if I have revealed this...
do you think that I am crazy?
If the FDA approved it,
what would the consquences be?
It will certainly diminish the acute pain in patients,
or make everyone around them get high?
Our streets are swarmed with pot heads,
who are hit daily by cars, because of unclear thinking;
and those who drive cause many fatal accidents...
others die of an overdose in filthy corners,
their lifeless bodies are spotted in small towns and big cities.
Is it a good idea to make it legal,
or will it endanger everyone in public places?
Dope head
Just read
Medical marijunia
Many states don't wanna
Flip this bill
Said it wouldn't heal
Glacoma
Paranorma
Nausea's
Seizers waaaaaa
They don't care
And won't share
Any relief
Good grief
Tired of puking
So got mussing
To FDA
Who just says
No dope
Gotta cope
