Limerick Friday LXXXX: Gustav And Ocho Cinco Are Hot-Air Twins


Three years since Katrina turned New Orleans into a lake
And left destroyed lives and dreams in its wake
Now Gustav is on a dangerous path
Hope it doesn’t give the area another bath
It's about time that the Crescent City got a freaking break

Some work for an Olympic medal all their life
Others randomly give away golds to a casino owner's wife
Three weeks at the Wynn, treated like a king
In return for some international bling
And people wonder why the NBA is filled with thugs and strife

Authorities foil an Obama assassination plot
Now off to prison four deadbeats go to rot
Amped on crystal meth and sniffing hair dye
They grabbed rifles and headed to Denver's Mile High
A country's in great shape when change can get someone shot

A blogger arrested for illegally releasing a G 'N' R song
Guess he thought people cared anymore, which is wrong
One day, the dude has to explain to his grandkids why he paid a $10K bail
While the ironically titled "Chinese Democracy" is destined to fail
No one knows who Guns 'N' Roses is anymore, the album has taken so long

Makes strange comments and comes off as quite vain
Chad Johnson is starting to make Mike Tyson look sane
Now he's taken his act to the courts, oh no
And legally changed his name to Ocho Cinco
I guess Pac Man and He Hate Me were taken, what a pain

Last time
