Paint That House! Posted on January 14, 2011 at 03:48:54 PM by Phil Haines
Most all who drove by every day
Would have no attention to pay
To the little old house
Hiding like a mouse
Behind some bushy trees
But some newer towns folk
Didn’t think it was a joke
And their sneers they did poke
Towards the house, like a mouse
Behind the bushy trees
So they simmered and they steamed
And behind the scenes they teamed
-up to destroy the house, that hid like a mouse
behind those bushy trees
Their petition exclaimed
The house should be flamed!
…to the town board they did explain…
Tear This Thing Down! You Clown!
Every time I see it I Frown!
- it affects my way of life!!
So their toil and strife, cuts like a knife
Like the newer towns folk want
