"Government, Phase One"

Government action:
To
Control crime-
Stop drugs-
Create new jobs-

Promise a chicken
In every pot-
A cow
In every barn:

And with new taxes
To
Control crime-
Stop drugs-
Create new jobs-

As a special treat,
Everybody can expect
Some corn on the cob:

Politicians and histrionics:

Speaking of even bigger abstractions-

And with lots of new taxes-

Even more government action:
To
Control crime-
Stop drugs-
Create new jobs-

Wave the flag-

Cat's in the bag!
