A POLITICAL LESSON

THERE ONCE WAS A COUNCILMAN NAMED DAN,

WHO CAME UP WITH A POLITICAL PLAN.

He'S NOT A TEAM PLAYER

HE TRIED TO BECOME MAYOR,

GUESS WHAT, HE GOT KICKED IN THE CAN.

NOW THIS SAME PERSON FROM BRICK,

WHO ASPIRED TO BECOME MAYOR REAL QUICK,

SAID I'LL CAMPAIGN ALONE,

WHO CARES IF THEY MOAN,

SO WHAT IF IT MAKES THEM REAL SICK.

NOW DAN HAS A NEW POLITICAL INVENTION,

IT'S KNOWN AS A CONVENIENT  ABSTENTION.

TO ABSTAIN IS HIS RIGHT,

IT CAUSED A SORRY PLIGHT,

NOW HE WILL FACE A POLITICAL INQUISITION.

THE MORAL OF THIS POEM IS TWO FOLD,

MAKE SURE YOU DO WHAT YOU'RE TOLD,

WHEN YOU THINK YOU'RE THE BEST,

YOU'VE ALREADY FAILED THE TEST,

WATCH OUT OR YOU'LL BE OUT IN THE COLD.
