I Carry A Big Old Wooden Bat

I believe everyone is equal and has the right to be alive to go to school to marry to have kids total 5
I don’t make fun of others it doesn’t matter if you’re tall short slim fat if you’re not my sister or brother
If I don’t have anything nice to talk about, I won’t say anything at all or will I shout
I’m not a bully I don’t throw people out of windows and then watch them fall or beat them up in an alley behind the wall
I won’t lie or take bribes to win an election I won’t start a war and uprising or insurrection
To get people killed just to hide a crime I won’t rob my mom’s piggy bank and take her last dimes
I won’t sell my soul to the devil to be president or put fake medals on my chest I still have my pride I have worked hard and have passed every test
I don't sneak behind your back like a snake in the grass oh well I talk about you behind your back or bite you in the ass
I don’t qualify to run for president today because I don’t carry a gun
I won’t be surprised if we find someone who lies steals cheats the man who does get voted into president probably bribed more officials so he wouldn't get beat
I know that I can’t be president today I’m too honest and I believe in Fair play
I’m okay with that but I will stand up for my rights I will show you that I can fight
Just don’t mess with me or my kids or you will go splat in my trunk I carry a big old wooden bat
