Another Needed Industry
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Up, down, over there and all around found.
Another needed industry.
There are too many nuts.
Out of their shells.
Whacked up.
And not on crack.
Professional mind losers.
Caught in their own traps.
This to be seen,
Leaves no questions to ask.
As to if they were assigned,
With the duty and task...
To recruit more cuckoos.
And let loose these nuts.
Kept cooped up too long.
While identifying others as such.
You know,
Those experts in the field of profiling.
And hired.
Without it questioned to ask,
If common sense to use...
Had been theirs to have this noticed.
It takes a cuckoo to recruit other cuckoos.
To make their cuckooness,
Effective to spread.
Making this doing a new industry.
Brand new and it needed.
It takes a cuckoo to recruit other cuckoo.
To make their cuckooness,
Effective to spread.
Making this doing a new industry.
Brand new and it needed.
Prestigious are those nuts once believed,
To be too cuckoo.
But now they're everywhere,
Recruiting.
Prestigious are those nuts thought cuckoo.
But now they're everywhere,
Representing and recruiting other cuckoos.
Legitimately whacked out and cracked up.
Yet representing to recruit more cuckoos.
And...
Addressing to impress,
Another needed industry to franchise.
