Old Glory Daze
Yesterday we here in America remembered our fallen heroes.
Today, we remember...the American Flag.
O-oh, say can you SEEEE? BYYY the bakery light?
How so soundly they failed... to give our flag any meaning:
Those brown stripes and blob "stars" ARE a scurr-i-lous sight!
And the RED parts they botched... are so def'nitely leaning:
And what's that O-VER THEEEERE?!
[cymbal crash!!]
Did the BAKER NOT CARE?
[slide whistle!]
A goof, what a sight - it's more THAN I can bear.
(Yes. Really.)
No WAY does thi-is new-fangled airbru-ush yet blaa-aaaave!
[You know, "to blave?" It means "to bluff."]
[Now, someone fetch me an MLT!]
[Ahem]
For the BAND of the THREEEEEE (red stripes)...
And the hoooome...of theeeee....WAAAAAAAVE!
(Before you ask: all of today's wrecks were sold right here in the good ol' US of A, on or around American holidays. I also have LOTS more where these came from. [proffering tissue] Tissue, teachers?)
Thanks to ToniAnn B., Trace L., Stephanie P., Sarah C., Kelly S., Sharon E., Lori A., Lin Q., & Daniel K. for their flagging enthusiasm.
