Remember General Patton, who
Slapped an invalid, and grew;
Sing a song of S. Legree,
Remembered for his cruelty;
Remember little Napoleon–
He looked out for Number One;
Sing of Ivan the Terrible Man
Who terrorized the Russian clan.
Hitler, too, will be remembered
For the world that he dismembered.
Hollywood ‘s a living lie–
There, hero-worship, gone awry
Produces murder, rape and mayhem:
Do we censure?–No, we payhem.
And small folk who made Good a must
Hear History trample on their dust.
