Ballad of the Suez Canal: Verse Three

We had a giant super-Moon.

I’m sayin’ for what its worth

that thanks to that great Supermoon

we got our money’s worth!

It took the work of man and tide

to help that ship break free.

And when that giant ship moved out,

she was a sight to see!

We’ve had an Epic Drama and

I’m glad to tell you, Pal.

that traffic’s moving right along on

the Big Suez Canal.

Headline: “Florida Woman Wins Powerball”

I didn’t win the lott’ry

so I guess I’ll do my chores.

I’ll wash up the breakfast dishes and

I’ll sweep up all the floors.

I’ll make the bed and pick up stuff and

to show I’m not a quitter,

I’ll go downstairs and face the task

of cleaning up kitty litter.

And when the house is all cleaned up

I’ll recognize with sorrow

that every thing that I just did

must be done again tomorrow.
