The Nose on Your Ear
-Well, paid all my bills except the one.
-Run outa checks?
-Nope. Lost it.
-Call up! Ask them how much, etcetera.
-Don't remember who they is!
-If you was a company, you flop!
-Ah, but not before firing half the workers.
-Go on!
-Eliminating all vacations and overtime!
-Bingo!
-And then cutting the wages of the remaining
terrorized in half!
-Capitalism is one slicing marvel! Is the Big
Boss done?
-Raids the pension plan.
-Where you been? They’s gone long ago! Replaced
by IRAs, or THE WALL STREET BONANZA GOUGE.
-No matter, for now that he's whipped you into
submission, you're the chief selling-point
when he unloads to a competitor.
-Another Republican?
-Mais oui! What else?
-I can get ALONG with this new guy!
-First one fired!
-Too bad. I came close to working for nothing!
-That's the perfection they're aiming for.
They call it the Right To Work For Nothing.
-Well, good luck to the seven left.
-They're dismissed! Plant moves South!
-His first mistake! To the Land of Take This
Job and Shove It ?
-Things get shoved all right! Up the rectum
of the most docile and cowardly workers
in the world!
-Outside of Asia?
-Asian companies come there. Case closed.
-Will Cornpone Capitalism save the world?
-Undoubtedly! Plain as the nose on your ear.
-Psychosomatic. Now that I'm fired, I expect
it to migrate back to its proper place.
-We must keep our place. Therein lies happiness!
-Lies happen!

One half the world laughs at the other half
-How do we get with the laughers?
-Behave ourselves!
-Too steep a price.
-Wherefore is the modern Chinese in this matter?
-Too busy manufacturing.
-Yeah for coolie wages, so nothing changes.
-Don't go too Lefty on me! You'll ruin everything. I just got
two nice speakers.
-(sings) O sneakers and speakers and you-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.
-Go permanently to the laughed-at half!
-I'll just laugh back. That's what you're missing in all of this:
full reciprocal thrust of the proverb.
-Who cares? They're inscrutable anyway.
-How're the speakers?
-Quite nice.
-Scrutable?
-Only the music.
