Can’t Feed ’em …..

Imagine if ‘Charivarius’, the author of this piece, had to get down with the kids and rewrite this and acknowledge that bad means good, that sick means good and so on and so forth.

Didn’t know the word until recently but, apparently, Winston Churchill loved paraprosdokians, figures of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected.

I was just listening to a Tidal playlist, and heard the song Oval Room, being performed by John Craigie. My immediate thought was that this was aimed a Donald Trump.
After a little research I discovered that the song was written over 30 years ago and released as the B-side of a single in 1984. The original inspiration for the song was Ronald Reagan.
The lyrics of this song can be applied, in some ways, to almost any of the US presidents who have been in office since that time.
However, I believe this song resonates most closely with recently departed Donald Trump.
I tried to find this song on YouTube. However, the examples that I found, featuring Blaze Foley are pretty poor sound quality.
Lifted from Facebook. A lighthearted video with a serious message.
Enjoy ….
