“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rabid Lemmings: The Musical – Seventy-six New Laws”

Seventy-six New Laws
(To the tune of Seventy-six Trombones from The Music Man)

Seventy-six new laws led the big parade
With a hundred and ten mandates close at hand
They were followed by rows and rows of the finest media pros,
The cream of toadies in the land.
Seventy-six new laws served bureaucracies
With a hundred and ten memos right behind
There were more than a thousand “needs”
Soaking up proceeds
There were scams of ev’ry shape and kind
There were bought-and-paid-for Senators and House poltroons
Blundering, plundering all along the way
Dumbbell dead end policies of big buffoons,
Each buffoon having their big, fat say!
There were fifty fat cat Liberals lapping flattery
Blundering, plundering prouder than before
Murderers they eulogize
On meds of ev’ry shape and size
Are let out so they can kill some more!
Seventy-six new laws made their altar cloth
And a hundred and ten safeguards died away
To the Doctrine they march, march, march!
Through the Great Dictator’s Arch
And they’re marching to your door today.

A third song for “Rabid Lemmings: The Musical” — I was inspired by changing the oil — if only we could change our leaders that easily.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rabid Lemmings: The Musical – I’ll Borrow”

I’ll Borrow
(To the tune of Tomorrow from Annie)

I’ll pay it all back
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
You’ll be paid!

Just wait until
Tomorrow
I’ll clear up all my debts,
All I borrowed
‘Til there’s none!

When I’m stuck and can’t pay
Today,
If only
That lie wasn’t thin
I Grin,
And Say,
Oh

I’ll pay it all back
Tomorrow
So ya havta hang on
‘Til tomorrow
Come what may

I’ll borrow!
I’ll borrow!
And pay back
Tomorrow!

It’s always a day away

When I’m stuck and can’t pay
Today,
If only
That lie wasn’t thin
I Grin,
And Say,
Oh

Tomorrow!
Tomorrow!
I’ll pay you
Tomorrow!

It’s always
A day
A way

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rabid Lemmings: The Musical – Gonna smoke ya!”

Gonna smoke ya!
(To the tune of Oklahoma!)

Smo-oh-oh-oh-oke that crystal, as your brain cells circle round the drain
And a million feet of lemmings beat
Till you can’t tell pleasure from the pain
Smo-oh-oh-oh-oke that crystal, every day I prey to get on high
Texting tunes and talk, and watch folks walk
Makin’ lazy circles with my eyes.

I know I do wrong with my plans
But the plans put the cash in my hand
And when I say
Youu! Hand-me-all-you-pay!
I’m only sayin’
I feel so fine, when I’m smokin’!
And I’m smokin’, today.

Smo-oh-oh-oh-oke that crystal, as your brain cells circle round the drain
And a million feet of lemmings beat
Till you can’t tell pleasure from the pain
Smo-oh-oh-oh-oke that crystal, every day I prey to get on high
Texting tunes and talk, and watch folks walk
Makin’ lazy circles with my eyes.

I know I do wrong with my plans
But the plans put the cash in my hand
And when I say
Youu! Hand-me-all-you-pay!
I’m only sayin’
I feel so fine, when I’m smokin’!
And I’m smokin’, today.

Today-today-Today-Today-Today-Today
O.K.-O.K.-O.K.-O.K.-O.K.-O.K…

I know I do wrong with my plans
But the plans put the cash in my hand
And when I say
Youu! Hand-me-all-you-pay!
I’m only sayin’
I feel so fine, when I’m smokin’!
And I’m smokin’, today.
My – Way – I’m – Home – Today
GONNA-SMOKE-YA!
Yeeow!

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – New Word: “Unaccountyble”

New Word: “Unaccountyble”

After repeated complaints about hundreds of thru-cutting dump trucks to County representatives; requesting a 4 TON weight limit on our rural road; the County Highway Director stated “I have researched the area and talked to highway officials in Lansing and they report there are no large through haul trucks utilizing Lansingville Road.”

Photos documenting this truck traffic was sent with no response. Suddenly signs appeared stating a limit of “20 TONS” — a weight limit that would ensure continued road usage by these thru-cutting trucks, and five times the 4 TON weight limit of every other local road.

A complaint letter sent to the Deputy County Administrator resulted in a response that completely ignored the Highway Director’s false claims and strange behavior; saying that the Director “posted the road at 20 tons to limit through traffic of large trucks”. A follow up email urging the County to address the facts of the complaint was ignored.

From there on; County authorities stonewalled and refused to comment or acknowledge any communication.

The full story will be recounted in the upcoming expose: “Tompkins County and Tammany Hall [I can’t seem to find any difference at all]”

It’s interesting and revealing that our government policy makers have so many ways to make you less, and so many reasons why they should do this. It was absolutely wrong to discriminate for any reason; now it’s absolutely right to discriminate whenever, and for whatever reason they decide — we were always told America was a “melting pot” of race, gender and culture; now they’ve reversed themselves and punitively profile people in all those ways — there used to be a belief in the innate worth of every human being; now our worth is decided by how will profit an arrogant and self-serving bigotry [covered up with a secretive and unquestionable “greater good.”]

This is not some little thing — no matter how hypocritical and blatantly bigoted their statements and policies; they adamantly refuse to change anything.

When they’re done with their self-love feast; you’re next on the menu. And if you don’t stand up for yourselves; you’re just fast-food wrappers on the side of the highway.

Nothing could be less characteristic of today’s social policy and its adherents than the advice contained in this phrase. Rather than trying to be a living example their claims, and abjuring bigoted and discriminatory actions; they insist their right [by virtue of their race, gender, ethnicity] to perform acts of bigotry and discrimination [by race, gender, and ethnicity] — thereby double dipping into the very evil that they tar their victims with; while hiding the hypocrisy of their own actions behind censored news, fiddled statistics, and a smokescreen of self-righteous anger and secrecy.

Some problems just don’t go away. Some systems don’t heal themselves after injury.

The TDML attitude says; “I can leave my car engine running because it’s more efficient”; but a more sensible attitude would be to make use of that efficiency to further reduce the carbon footprint.

The world may not return to its previous state; but it may recover more quickly. Or we could just wait . . . with the engine running.
