The government writes checks to take up the slack,
Why are people so happy to get their own money back?
The government knows where to send everyone’s cash,
So is the census just doing a rehash?
Lord, what a failure this program has been.
Why do we trust these bastards again?

Blind John Ellsworth (1960- ), a (questionable) poet and sometimes Texas bluesman. He has recorded one spoken-word album (thankfully unreleased), since he is still trying to learn to play guitar. (Lack of musical skills is what makes him a poet and not a lyricist. Plus, he can’t write music.)
