Ballad of Pauli Tix

Post by mnaz »

Let me tell a story 'bout our Pauli Tix.
Poor trickster con barely kept his family fixed.
Then one day he went shootin' up the polls,
and up from the swamp came a bubblin' tool.

A phrase, that is.
Fool's gold.
Try the tea.

So, the first thing ya know old Paul's a billionaire.
The Pauli Tix folk said, "run for office there!"
They said Wash-ing-ton is the place ya oughta be,
so, he loaded up the truck and moved to D C.

love it. you should do an audio version
I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach 10,000 stars how not to dance.

Thanks, winddance. Silly little ditty. Every once in awhile I like to see what topic I can fit into the Ballad of Jed Clampett for mild amusement.
