o what to sing?

if you thing he’s a saint he probably Is
\nif he’s wearing raggedy baggedy cloths
\nand sounds a little bit crazy.
\nbe careful who you kick
\non your way up.<\/p>\n
“Sing it now, my baby
\nsing it now.”<\/p>\n
if you read news somewhere that
\nMuslims are marching on Washington
\ntake a deep breath
\nand another
\nthen find a second news source.<\/p>\n
what do you say Hewie and Dewey
\nwhere did you leave Louie?<\/p>\n
last seen she was calling on
\ngrandpas and grandmas
\ngreat, and great great et al
\nto come to the aid of our children.<\/p>\n
Oh National Savior
\nbeing damned if you do and damned if you don’t
\nmay the Holy Peace Doves
\nbe your guide and comfort
\nforgive those who lose hope
\nas we learn to embrace those
\nwho still hate because they still fear
\nthe boogie man with bogus one liners
\nthat appeal to our baser instincts.
\nAmen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
