GET’ER DONE
I don’t like a bragging bigot,
Tall in stature, but in class, a midget
A man of faith, a fool to some
But at least a man who’ll get’er done.
I don’t like a man, who’s mouth is runny,
You’ll be outraged or think it’s funny.
A brilliant boss, a beast to some,
At least a man who’ll get’er done.
Don’t like a bull in a China shop,
Cut to the chase, fail or flop.
Not a fan of most everyone,
But at least a Hulk who’ll get’er done.
Would we rather one tailor fit,
political liar, bumbling twit...
A wrecking ball that ain’t bout Schmidt?
Excuse my colorful candid wit.
Give me a proven man
whose paid the cost,
have built an empire being the boss,
Went far out into the deep,
to save his country rocked to sleep
Some’ll beg to differ, but here’s the sum.
We needed a patriot who would get’er done!
“You’re like a bull in a China shop”
She always used to say
Then I grew
She sadly passed away
Now he who holds my heart
Has taken over the reigns
“Be careful and gentle ”
“You’re like a bull in a China shop”
I hear once again ….
Imaginations fun and free
From simple things to really fancy
Your mind just escapes somewhere new
Like when pigs are flying over you
With wings spread out sharing the sky
With elephants sharing the sky
An umbrella you will need
It will get messy yes indeed
When it's raining cats and dogs
Look out for the falling "logs"
It's hard to tell or really know
If its hot or frigid cold
No coat or not upon your shoulder
Visiting a hell that might freeze over
Exploring your minds imagination
Can be a scary vacation
Like a bull in a china shop
Never knowing what thoughts will drop
A good and funny place to find
Dreamy thoughts crashing your mind
