A Flag Flying Farce - Lesley Leben, Humor Times

I am Sam, I am Sam.

S am I am, That Sam I am

I do not like that Sam I am

I did not hang that flag I say,

Not upside down, not anyway

I did not hang it in the air,

I did not hang it, I did not dare

It was my wife, dear Martha-Ann

It’s she who is, the MAGA fan

“the election was stolen,” she swears to this day

“No matter what those Lefties say”

I am Sam, Sam I am

I can’t control my Martha-Ann

I can strike down Roe Vs. Wade

Rule against a gay parade

Allow every home to house a rifle

But Martha’s business, I do not trifle

She’s fond of flags, Fox News, and knitting

and when she’s angry she’s prone to spitting

She may not always act with class

But I like a woman with some sass

So back off my Mrs. A

In her politics, I have no say

I’ll just pretend to be unbiased

On the court that is the highest

And take your rights away one by one

Until my agenda is finally done

Get ready for my ultimate solution

Bye Bye US Constitution
