"I'm a Social Democrat!" (sung to the tune of: If I only had a Brain)

"I spend my days a tryin'
to never be caught lyin'
But sometimes it's just so hard.

I promise to help with the struggle
while my people desperate muddle
I'm a Social Democrat.

Oh, I can tell you why
you should be taxed until you die.
From my view I see that
You don't know how to spend it
so to me you should just send it.

I wile away the hours
thinking how to take your powers
and stack them up for me...

Oh, you'll never see us coming
but by then you'll be running
from the Social Democrat..."

Light blazed overhead, the air raid sirens didn’t stop. “Searchlights scanned the skies and ...

Bloody Mary

I can't remember when I first heard the story of Bloody Mary..you know, that cute little kid tale where if you gaze into your bathroom mirror and say her name three times in a row, you'll see Bloody Mary right behind you. All I remember is... trying it. Bathroom dimly lit, I bit my lip, took a deep breath and decided I was going to make some magic. I crossed my arms, stared directly into the mirror and said, "Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary..." Nothing. I did it again. Still...nothing. I remember feeling eyes at the back of my head but chalked it up to realizing that I was standing in the dark talking to a mirror. Nothing particularly scary about it. it was just...just stupid. And then it was bedtime. Midnight. I don't know why I woke up, I just did. I lay in bed listening to the sounds of our house for a while. The downstairs cuckoo clock ticked away. In another minute the bird jumped out and gave his 12 cuckoo salute. I couldn...
