The Ghost of Charles De Gaulle revisited
Somebody's Birthday
I cited the movie "To Have and Have Not"
I know what that movie is about
I would like for him to upstage the birthday boy
I would like to have a life I better enjoy
I am not the tormented outcast of the first film
A barkeep in a town within
I am sure the French will not damn the French
I want a new lover not to be a wench
Wench is a derogatory name
Hosting a child can be the same
When i said "fashionably late"
It could be the number of American lives to equate
If we had entered when Paris fell
Maybe D Day would not be living hell
America already paid a heavy price
On fighting the war they made the due sacrifice
This is just the story of three little birds
The very youngest one needs better herds
She is capable of feeling and reason
That does not change with passing season
Humphrery Bogart must have found out
That i was not Timothy but Bart about
Maybe The Simpsons was a down payment
Of a future to meet the pavement
Maybe today is "The Scouring of the Shire"
And greater deeds will yet transpire
About the Creator
Bruce Underwood
I am trying to figure out if i can make the same amount of money working as a poet for Vocal that i can working part time as a dishwasher.
