The Crazy

RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WORLD DEMOCRACY


The Crazy (Germany and Peru)

 

A mad movement in Berlin

An attempt to overthrow the Bundestag

To replace it with a second Reich

(one short of Adolph Hitler)

Extremists of the right unite

To take their place in history

As proof positive beyond belief

There is no place on earth

Above or beyond the crazy

 

The Q is the cue to rally the crew

Against the powers that be

But there is no power on earth

That can topple democracy

 

The president of Peru decides

To banish the Peruvian congress

The military commander resigns

Not so fast says congress

We are the people’s house

We stand for basic liberty

Peru will choose the people

This crazy will not be

 

The Q is the cue to rally the crew

Against the powers that be

But there is no power on earth

That can topple democracy
