Before you acknowledge his pain?
How many times must the toilet bowl swirl
Before it’s all flushed down the drain?

How many beers must fraternities swill
Before all the breweries run dry?
How many dicks must sororities suck
Before they’ve unzipped every fly?

How many morons must inhabit the White House
Before we’ve gone too far awry?

How many times must a man whack his pud
Before it falls off in his hand?
How many times must a man wipe his ass
Before he’s scraped clean by the sand?

Before he accedes to their plan?
