C’mon Folks

by

Michael Kroth

It’s coming like a rumble

C’mon folks, a lightning crack

And then a rumble,

A rumbling, rumble that won’t

Subside.

It’s coming like electric shock

C’mon folks, a sticker shock

And then a shock,

Another shock, the shocking shock

Abides.

It’s coming like a punch

C’mon folks, a sudden punch

Another punch,

A crunching punch, a punch that still

Resides.

A nation set asunder

Going under

Set up for plunder

Well…no wonder

Voters blundered.

But…

We're comin’ like a rumble

Won’t subside.

Electric shock

Will abide.

Crunching punch.

Will reside.

C’mon folks,

It's time to rumble.

C’mon folks,

It's time to tumble.

C'mon folks,

Punch Back.
