john berryman - dream song 23: the lay of ike lyrics

Loading...

this is the lay of ike
here’s to the glory of the grewt white—awk—
who has been running—er—er—things in recent—ech—
in the united—if your screen is black
ladies & gentlemen, we—i like—
at the point he was already terrific—sick

to a second term, having done no wrong—
no right—no · right—having let the army—bang—
defend itself from joe, let venom’ strauss
bile oppenheimer out of use—use robb
who’ll later fend for goldfine—breaking no laws
he lay in the white house—sob!!—

who never understood his own strategy—whee—
so monty’s memoirs—nor any strategy
wanting the ball bulled thro’ all parts of the line
at once—proving, by his refusal to take berlin
he misread even clauswitz—wide empty grin
that never lost a vote (o adlai mine)
