Housewives in pink foam curlers
Scan programs on T.V.
Bill Clinton's on his pulpit.
Corruption's all I see.
Sweat glistens on the forehead
Of a child in Gifford's shop.
Kathie Lee, in ruby high heel pumps
Won't let her profits drop.
Ron Popeil's pasta maker's
A price too good to be true.
He'd sell his mother for the dough--
No qualms 'bout screwing you.
A starling, black and ominous,
Steals bread from bluebird's beak.
As day slips to the dead of night,
The sun falls, tired and weak.
