Sometimes, There's Nothing Funny

by Mike Stevens

I love to laugh, and I'm quick with a joke,
but, there's not much funny about one particular bloke

who claims to be a president for everyone,
but you can't tell by looking at the damage he's done,

he governs like the drunk at the neighborhood bar,
and is about as smart--how did this idiot get this far?

By not-so-subtle manipulation of The Three-Teeth Brigade,
who think he's some kind of king, their delusion's won't fade

They refuse to see the sad and awful truth, the facts, if you will
they simply close their eyes and ears, and think he's great, still

Yeah, sometimes there's nothing funny, it's a critical mess,
I find it hard to be light-hearted, I must confess
