Governor Woke Smoke’s $campaign
I. Apologize, rationalize ‘bout Injun
removal/slavery? Why, you’re a beer short of a six-pack—
A fry short of a Happy Meal!
Crazier than a soup sandwich!
Crazy as an outhouse rat!
Nuttier than a five-pound fruitcake!
Apologize, rationalize ‘bout Injun removal/slavery?
You’re mad as a monkey on the Mason-Dixon Line!
Nuttier than a squirrel turd!
Nuttier than a porta potty at a peanut festival!
You’re proof you don’t have to hang from a tree to be a nut!
And you’re loopy as a crosseyed cowboy thinkin’
we’ll allow you to vote in this negro-rigged, neo-
Bolshevik system without at least posin’ the eligibility
questions: How many jelly beans in this jar?
How many bubbles in this bar of soap?
How much buckshot’s in my shotgun?
II. Dixie poised to take reich reins next $election…
One last hit off his woke pipe and Gov. Woke
Smoke’s $campaign’s off and running! Jr.
Moribund, wonky words/mumbo jumbo—lewd
legalese. Vows never to surrender to woke ideology!
Another strongman! Do no wrong man. Right
man/white man for the white house. Harvard
smarter than Boss Tweet’s lazy-ass, Last Days
of Pompeo…low Barr bungling and grifting…
STOP WOKE ACT/ STOP VOTE ACT—
on the down-low—Look away, look away
from confederate Florida/Sunshine State!
Freest state west of Hungary. “Where woke
goes to die” and Black teens spend formative
Years in solitary…
Vote removed; Shuffle added—Transposed into
Key of Assault Right—Ain’t nothin’ but “Bubba’s
Blues:”
“Woke Folk got bees in their bonnets ‘bout Injun
Removal and Slavery
Woke Folk got bees in their bonnets ‘bout Injun
Removal and Slavery
It’s still Jim Crow’s Bar-b-Q, whether the sauce is
sweet, or savory…”
STOP WOKE ACT/ STOP VOTE ACT—
on the down-low: Layman’s terms:
“We swear on patinated, pigeon shit-covered hooves of
Robert E. Lee’s horse,Traveller, Jews will not replace
us! Warning fetus-killing physicians: stand down— And
feral negro mongrels; Mexican murderers and
rapists; same sex-marrying Muslims holdin’ christianity
in contempt: No jihad in Dixie!
We’re taking her back—making her White Man’s Land
again!
Comply, or get outta the Sunshine State before sundown…”
