A Word From Your Elected Representatives In Washington (A poem)

A Word From Your Elected Representatives In Washington

At the end of the month the politicians agreed:

"See we took your food stamps don't bother me

with your hunger pains

and tales of sleeping in the rain.

You're good for nothing

if you can't pay your way

You're a waste of my time

a blight on my day.

No one in Washington sees your tears

and no one cares if you cry

no one cares if you jump in the river,

why don't you jump in the river and die?

Get a job,

get a job

take care of yourself you lazy stiff

and you'll be rich you see,

you'll be in the sunshine

with plenty to eat just like me."
