On the Spur Of the Moment
By Roy K. Moulton
Providing.

Ihis would be a pleasant country;
Yes. lana of milk and honey.
Every one would have the money
10 accomplish his douires
Every one of us would prosper.
Every wide man. every noodle,
Wodld rakc in a pile of Doodle
And would bale it ZAP with wires
Ihcrc would be no anxious moments
Ana no mortgage sharks would
haunt us
And no bin collectors ,aunt us
In way We've grown to hate.
Iheie would be supreme contentment
Every mortal would b. wealthy
And astonishly healthy
And quite satisfied with Fate
Everybody would wear Jewels
Life would be one constant party
For a public hale and Hearty.
Twould Il. pleasant. we'il allow.
Iwould bc paradise garden
such as old man Adam stood on.
If tho candidate made good on
Al they're promising just now.
