Attend our Council Meetings,
If you wish to learn a lot —
About our fearless leaders,
And what’s cooking in the pot.
Particularly, if you live on slopes,
Or plan to paint your house,
Or maybe to install a fence,
Or even trap a mouse.
You can observe, a new Bell Curve,
By how they think things out.
Agendas that affect you.
Believe me, there’s no doubt.
The bottom line, you may find,
Is to justify the fact —
They love the Power of Control,
And how we breath and act.
There may never be a reason,
Nor a season, for their plans —
But even so, the ego’s show,
As they ignore the facts at hand.
You have to see in person,
What Cityhood has wrought —
The quality of thinking,
And what our votes have bought.
