To the tune of Midnight in the Filthy Armory
Got the Representational Blues
No news
but that
Rich ante up
as dealer breaks
out the fresh-
ly stacked decks.
Rich man can travel
anywhere. Rules the same.
Repubs take great pride
in the game.
Dems ashamed. Hide
after selling out
in a rout. They
get the Representational Blues,
no news
but that
most learn to ante up
as the dealer breaks
out the fresh-
ly stacked decks.
Rich man can travel
anywhere. Rules the same.
Repubs take great pride
in the game.
Dems ashamed.
Rest of us just lose and lose,
playing the old
representational blues.
Rest of us just lose and lose,
playing the old
representational blues.

Living in the USA
In perfect order as they come
from the new box.
As you can see as I fan-nnn them
thus, and thus, and thus.
Now I shuffle to randomize them for
a game. Watch carefully!
A few fast moments. I fan them
again and it’s a hodgepodge, no?
Inspect closer if you want.
Now, you cut any way you wish.
Ready to play? Not really.
I’ve stacked it. Whatever little game
we choose, I’ve the edge.
Now and forever.
Oh, and I took the jokers out. I told you
to pay attention.
I’ll make you a gift of them.

At Stake
Not much up till then,
he goes all in.
But refused cards. “That
truly settles it,” he insists,
“game’s rigged!”
“Startling Revelation Depart-
ment,” sneers dealer.
