Twas the Night Before Recovery

[johncoby2]

Twas the night before Recovery, when all through the house
Emails were flying with the click of a mouse!
Letters and calls and faxes to the Chair,
In hopes a bill will be passed on health care.

The republicans, so few, and Lieberman too
With visions of insurance lobbyists dancing in their shoes
And Nancy in her kerchief, and I in my knit
All of my friends say I am so full of wit.

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter
I woke from my slumber, a group of tea baggers
“What a maroon!” I yelled as they linger
Tore open the shutters to shoot them the uh…..

With their moldy old driver, so lurching and slick
I knew in a moment it was Cheney, the Dick
Mumbling and stumbling with Hutchinson in pace
Looking for someone to shoot in the face

He was thin and tall, a right jolly young dude
I arrested his friend then shared a cold brew
A wink of his eye and a wap on my head
Soon gave me to know there was work straight ahead

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work
To fix our great country devastated by a jerk
Our economy was crumbling, our country at war
Our soldiers are dying and a lot lot more.

Our kids are sick with no insurance for care
Students look for college funds from coffers so bare
Republican leaders with hearts so empty and cold
Hoping for our death instead of growing old.

But with a gleem in his eye and words so smooth
We all knew what was needed and what we needed to do

Now Obama! now, Nancy! now, Reid and Biden!
On, Don! On, Rob! no sense in hiding!
Fix our economy, create more jobs
Stop the wars and health care for all!

He sprang to his role as leader of the team
And they got to work to fulfill his dream
And I heard him exclaim, as he rode into the night
Happy Holidays to all, better days are in sight!
