Red Crap and Spam (my version of Dr. Seuss responding to the Ted Cruz non-filibuster)

[DFW]

He said, „Cruz.“
I said, “Lose!”
That Cruz-you-lose, that Cruz-you-lose.
I do not like that Cruz-you-lose.

“Do you like my phony ruse?”
I do not like your phony ruse.
I do not like it, Cruz-you-lose.

“Would you like it as a bore?
“Like it on the Senate floor?”

I would not like you, crashing bore,
I hate you on the Senate floor.
I do not like your big fat head.
I do not like it, Ted-so-red.

Would you like it bit by bit?
Would you like it full of shit?

Not with shit, not one bit,
Not as a bore, not on the floor
I do not like your big swelled head
I do not want it, live or dead.
I don’t care for your phony ruse.
I do not like it, Cruz-you-lose.

Would you try it blowing smoke?
Would you try it served by Koch?

Not with smoke, not by Koch
Not with shit, not one bit
Not as a bore, not on the floor
I do not like your right wing blues
I do not like it Cruz-you-lose.

“You don’t like it, so you say.
“But listen one time, and you may.
“Listen, and you may I say!”

Ted, if you will let me be,
I will listen and you’ll see.

SAY! You really ARE quite full shit!
I like your drivel not one bit!
You really are a crashing bore!
You don’t deserve the Senate floor!
And I won’t listen in the dark.
I cannot stand your slimy snark.
And I would put you in a box
‘Cause you are stupid as an ox
And you deserve to wheeze and choke
Since you are only blowing smoke
All financed by the Brothers Koch,
All your future prospects dead,
Go put THAT in your big fat head!
We don’t fall for your phony ruse.
We do not like you, Cruz-you-lose.

My sister and her husband were featured by chance in a "man-and-woman-tourists-on-the-street" two page article in a Norwegian newspaper a few years ago after they visited Bergen. They pressed me into translation duty the next time I visited them in Noo Joisy. Two full pages of a Norwegian newspaper was a chore.
