Miracle Whip
By Nate Spears
By Nate Spears
Free from mason hands
Hard labor isn’t the way
If it isn’t necessary
Evil roots sprout
The circus acts grow
Worldwide
Dear lord
Acts of retaliation move a nation
My feet stand still
I demand respect with this recount
The cash cow overloads in weight
I know who I am, no need to straddle the fence
One evil ticket to success
Will take you on the ride of your life
Seat belts fastened, hold on
It’s now time for
The Miracle Whip to hit
Lacerations are the blueprints of life
Very appropriate for these times.
