When the Lord created the term “white bread”
Mitt Romney was listed its figure head.
He ran a bad campaign for president
And who knows in what state he’s resident.
But, the guy gets how democracy works
And stands against all the self-serving jerks.
If you don’t bother to take the time,
To express your thoughts in rhyme,
The chances are awfully good,
You’ve not thought as much as you should.
Rhymes are fun and set the stage right,
Like lovers undressing before a fight…
When the Lord created the term “white bread”
Mitt Romney was listed its figure head.
He ran a bad campaign for president
And who knows in what state he’s resident.

And stands against all the self-serving jerks.

It’s nice to know there are some simple ways
To juice the number and joy of our days.
For folks among us advancing in age
Walking every day should be all the rage…
Death risk drops by up to fifty percent!
So let’s lace up those shoes and represent.

The Tar Heels advance to the Final Game!
(And Duke will never really be the same…)
What a great show for this Fairy Tale team
Delivering up a Chapel Hill dream.
Underdogs, yes, but with an alliance –
This team stands on the shoulders of giants.

However much I cannot stand the guy
It’s things like this that let him rise so high.
“Likely” is such an empty word to use
For a federal judge whose view will make news.
It says nothing at all and lacks gravitas
And mostly just makes the judge look like an ass.

We try to keep discourse pretty PG
Here at TTNR, as you can see.
But once in a while things come along,
Rougher than most but worth playing the song.
Putin: a pussy or a little bitch?
Of course he’s both – and find out which is which!

I get that Putin can be a tough boss.
But have his advisors penciled the loss
That they will realize when it is found out
That a real victory is largely in doubt.
It’s a dangerous game these guys are playing
And maybe a sign Russia’s decaying.

He says he’s never used a burner phone
Doesn’t know what one looks like, let alone
Using one to conduct affairs of state!
(Or planning a coup that’s been fueled by hate…)
But Bolton has now come and called him out.
He knows what a burner phone is about…

Dr. Seuss had such a creative brain
All those issues last year gave me great pain.
Tolerance was one of his major themes
In his characters’ lives and in their dreams.
So I’m glad the public has come to terms
And shunned the cancellers and their bad germs.

If not so tragic it would be funny
But not having enough arms or money
They got creative in how they would fight
And this clever advance is one they got right.
Jamming the signals with heavy metal!
Better than hot oil poured from a tar kettle.

This dude is sailing a nineteen-foot boat
From San Fran to Japan, that’s quite a float.
Then add to the mix that he’s eighty-three,
Still clearly hearing the call of the sea.
At his age I hope to have the same spunk!
But a bigger boat… because I’m a punk.
