She has begged to see me all day.
The teacher and I have tried to figure it out.
But it has not worked out, so I see her in the morning.
She is a fourth-grade delight.
With a big problem.
She needs to know how to control her classmates.
I suggest that she let them be themselves.
This is a letdown for her.
She thought I had a magic potion.
Sure, I do have a pointy hat, and a broom.
I again let her know that she cannot control them.
The teachers say we are loud and not focused, she tells me.
I know the eleven knuckleheads in her class.
They are not wrong.

We went to Date-on Ohio
164 miles away to
Do the gig.
Swank and Swiggle
Has successfully convented
Our manager to stopover
Linzzies Supper club
To hear the orchestra
Swede got drunk and
Wanted to mingle. He
Caught up wiff sum slink
she was tryna put him on
For the evening when
Gaffa started preaching
Bout us being wiff so many
women. Jealous, I mean jealous.
How he talking when he got
Twelve knuckleheads and
4 rx wives. I stayed in
The limo and watched the tele
Day up in linzzrys and come
Outside looking for cash to
Pay the suppa bill, me and the
Chafferier acted like we sleep.
I phoned it in, and then those
Fools come out wiff six woman.
And that hippocrite Gaffa wiff
Two of em!
Honey mambo sauce dripping off a his beard.
Talking n about it being Christmas all over the world. That why I wrote
"Christa's All over the World"
That's why!

It takes two to tango,
as they say.
It also takes two
to road rage.
It sure is fun watching
two insane,
out-of-control knuckleheads
zigzag aggressively
on the highway
with their driver windows down;
honking their car horns,
screaming
vile obscenities back and forth!
Classy guys exchanging "bird flips"
as they chase each other down;
both angry enough
to run each other off the road,
if they ever end up
side by side!
Can you imagine
being caught up in that craziness?
Two banshees on steroids;
funny considering
one can't understand the other.
That's exactly how to communicate!
In the midst
of all the chaotic madness,
me and you; two safe drivers
sharing the road with two idiots
without a care in the world
about the safety of others;
completely oblivious
they're also playing Russian Roulette
with their own lives.
Neither of the two
possessing the presence of mind
to simply disengage
and turn down the heat
before it spells disaster!
Do not tailgate
these uncivilized loons.
Pullover to the shoulder,
or better yet,
take the next exit to safety.

is long, but it bends toward justice"
When it snaps, hope it
Hits the knuckleheads

The experts predict by 2050, we'll all live to over a hundred
A lot of us will say, nope, that's not for this old muddlehead
Ninety years seems quite long enough
When the money runs out and things get tough
And we all end up in a home as penniless knuckleheads
