Horsing Around

.

Every Woman's Health Clinic, the scene of all the fights,

Demonstrators sitting in, demanding Unborn rights.

Police were called, to move them out, take them off to jail,

Where all could stay and spend the night, until they posted bail.

.

An interview just yesterday, Corporal Fetterley of the PIC,

Said, "we must have the paperwork, to male the charges stick."

Bring your toothbrush, Donnie warned, to a member of the press,

A night in jail, they're sure to spend, unless I miss my guess.

.

From now on, we will take a stand, we will not horse around,

If the A.G. will not back us up, charges will abound,

No more will we be sitting with, egg upon our face,

No more will they be granted, a period of grace.

.

With all this new found openness, the press is filled with glee,

They all are wanting interviews, with Donald Fetterley.

Bill Good from CKNW, wants an in depth interview,

Preferably at noontime, before Donnie's shift at two.

.

The Globe and Mail, have also called, press from near and far,

A celebrity is being born, and Don could be a star.

Maybe he could parlay this, to a talk show of his own,

Eliminate that middle man, he can do it all alone.

.

The sky could be the limit, who knows how far he'll go,

First written word, then radio, and then a T.V. show.

But first he'll need a title, for this talk show on the air,

The Corporal's Comment, is one that seems quite fair.

.

But these plans of super stardom, are put on hold, I bet,

After talking to Chief Stewart, Don's career goals have been met.

No more will Donald Fetterley, speak with the great press corps,

Without the word of God above, Don will speak no more.
