Tea Party

The Tea Party

I guess they took their name
From those rebels long ago
And they have a lot in common
As my preceding verse will show

The originals were a bunch of rich slave owners
Who were opposed to ever being taxed
They wished to keep the “Status Quo”
From ever being relaxed

If the poor would ever get educated
Chaos would surely prevail
They might even gain some power
And all that it entails

Oppression is the answer
To protect the very elite
Forbid the very thought of
Giving power, to the man in the street

They would hate to see a change
That might help the working class
They’re safely on that ”Republican Elephant”
Instead of a lowly “Democratic Jackass”
