OT Comes the Revolution

[Kurt Kaufman]

Comes the revolution!
Everything is jake!
Comes the revolution-
We'll be eating cake!
When the streets and rivers run with red,
I'll be underneath the bed.
And after all their capers
Put the foe to rout,
I will buy the papers
To see how we came out.
Comes the revolution- all is jake-
And soon we'll be eating cake!

-Alexander Throttlebottom,  U.S. VP
