Brave Sir Mark

By Mitch Berg

Everybody sing along:

Bravely bold Sir Mark, Rode forth from Wayzata.

He was not afraid to serve, Oh brave Sir Dayton.

He was not at all afraid to serve in elected office,

Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Dayton.

He was not in the least bit scaredTo keep his office hours.

Or to serve his constituents, and live in DC.

To dwell in a Georgetown condo,And have his trust fund burned away,

And face the same threats as the rest of Congress…

His building threatened, his mellow harshed,

And his schedule changed and his alert level raised,

And his staff sent home and his office closed

His sobriety questioned, his fitness impugned…

Does anyone know a good lute player?

    What, you don’t play lute too?

    Careful, you’ll make him soil his armor again.

    On second thought, let’s not go to 1006 Summit Avenue. ‘Tis a silly place.

    Brave Sir Mark could bring about the anarcho-syndicalist commune the DFL has long sought. Or perhaps just provide us all with a shrubbery.

  4. Jeff Kouba Says:

    …a good lute player…

    there’s a joke in there somewhere… I’m going to go with… “how could you tell?”
