COLD SPRINGS DREAM
July 15 , 2011
A long night at the bar drinking beer and whiskey
Left me feeling quite beat and not very frisky
The evening was over as I put down my glass
And off to bed I dragged my sorry old ass
I closed my eyes and had quite a dream
Our country had a new political team
Anne Nicholson was President of the USA
The XP party was ruling the day
The Interior Secretary was a man named Duck
The Sierra Club said, “Oh my God, what bad luck!”
To improve the enjoyment of everyone’s vacations
He eliminated all prior wilderness designations
At this news the Enviro’s were totally dismayed
When he reintroduced grizzlies their nerves totally frayed
When Morgan obtained her environmental degree
Dave said, “Sorry my lass, you’ll have to put up with ME!”
For a break Dave returned to Klawock, Alaska
He’d spent too much time in the state of Nebraska
He picked up his old friend, the weird Sarah Palin
She tried to seduce him when he took her sailin’
As I lay in REM sleep the dream got stranger
O ld style politics came into great danger
Bob Dylan had said that the times were a-changin’
Well, the country was in for some quick rearrangin’
Annie moved the capitol from Washington, D.C.
To a sagebrush outpost in Cold Springs, NV
Congressional members were [John, Barbara, Tammy, Kim and Cricket]
Who could imagine a better ticket?
Kathy left Middlegate to become Senate lead
The blood bath was messy when she trounced Harry Reid
Nancy Pelosi was in trouble, flaming liberal, she
All hailed the change to House Speaker Dee Dee
Not to be left out came Rachel and Emma
Republicans now had a real dilemma
The conservatives were soon put over a barrel
When Cold Springs took over the party with Michone, Jerry and Cheryl
Now the country was reborn with a hope anew
Here in the land of the Red, White and Blue
We had a lot more freedom and a lot more fun
And friends, that’s the story of how the West was won
