A New YEARS TOAST
Let’s all raise a glass to better times.
The past year was a curse, Adding up the fears so many
Has a lot that is best forgotten
Bush, Gore, Enron too, Sub-prime loans, and Madoff’s crimes.
Crisis has become the norm, Don't hold your breath for tax reform, Congress may vote to raise taxes, Fix the schools, help Sandy people too, When the where-with-all can be found.
The Democrats have lost some seats, Despite their legislative feats, Possibly along the way they, May acquire more vertebrae, Or succumb to red state lobster.
Will Obama restrict the filibuster? Used in fights to save the South it’s civil rights, The Republican empire now lies in shards, Who knows whats in the cards? The outside candidates want respect.
Do not bet for any reason On a stellar basketball season. The NBA will for sure in 2013 Want increased salaries for Their tall men who wear big shoes.
Baseball is another story, Brought Weber State a lot of glory. The players bat they hustle too, Sanders start was heady Thanks to Kasey and to Stacy.
Football turned back the clock When Ron McBride retired last season, John Smith returned to be head coach Things went bad as his coaching got worse, Let’s all drink to better times.
Football was great throughout the state, Utah did good their fan will cheer The quarter back next year. Utah State and BYU did very well The girls wrestling teams in all the schools.
Did very well All us men hope, hope, hope They will wrestle in Their short, short, Short,shorts
This year.
Let’s all drink to better times.
