BEHIND CLOSED DOORS
"The Survey Song"
(a.k.a. "The Christmas Song,"
a.k.a. "Chestnuts Roasting on an
Open Fire."
Have you ever had company for the
holidays?)
Going nuts, roasting under surveyors' ire,
The state's here in their combat
boots.
Don't they know they're preaching to
the choir,
These folks dressed up in leisure
suits?
Everybody knows that facilities are
not the same,
Each one's got a different plight.
When surveyors are here with eyes
all aglow,
We'll find it hard to sleep tonight.
"Silent Night"
(Like that's a possibility when you're
on call.)
Silent night, at home tonight,
Slippers on, left and right.
Suddenly, the phone starts to ring:
These 2 surgeons have more than 1
thing.
Sleep in heavenly peace?
They don't care in the least.
"Jingle Bells"
(The song that's even less avoidable
than news and hot air about
Obamacare.)
Jingle bells,
Build a rail,
Run out Washington.
Oh what fun we'll have some day
Buying insurance on eBay!
Jingle bells,
Our healthcare smells,
Our leaders laid an egg.
Oh what fun, after 3 more years,
When they repeal this powder keg.
