Puppies and Rainbows!

Puppies and Rainbows!

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

The new me!

"
*Not musical in any way--severe injury will  occur with any attempt to play!

 

 

 Verse:

Nothing but happy, will you be seeing from me,

from now on, happy is what you can expect to see.

Yes, there's still the haunting specter of Trump,

 but how many stories about that horse's rump?

 

Pre-Chorus:

Besides, just watching the news is sobering enough.

You want a happy jig, not reading me rant in a huff!

 

Verse:

I'm happy, I go lucky, with a happy song in my heart,

not just another downer guy who rips Trump apart.

 

Yes, 'up people' is now my stock in trade.

Oh, I forgot 'with', didn't I? Well okay, I know I've made

 

Pre-Chorus:

a declaration that I've changed my tune,

but I don't live in a fricking cocoon!

 

Chorus:

No Puppies and Rainbows, no new leaf,

No going easy on sucked things I perceive.

I tried, I really tried, but it ain't no-go,

I've got to sound off on things that blow!

 

Verse:

 Things like Trump, and Trump, and...oh, well,

I'm glad I told the new me to go straight to hell!

If you want 'happy', you're so in the wrong place,

I'm ranting and raving, I'll wipe that smile of your face!

 

Pre-Chorus:

Took a leave of absence from the s**t today,

but I'm pissed, and that's what I'm going to say!

 

Repeat Chorus:

 

End
