Jesus Christ, You’re Louder Than Hell

CEE

Rodney Dangerfield’s first career
He’s on Ed Sullivan, in pantomime
Tie-jerk sensation, all eyes and lips
Drowned by fact of parental party
Behind me
Card table hoo-rah
Contract bridge, the chess match of, yes,
The Greatest Generation
It should be Fischer-Spassky, with partners
Behind me
Rodney should be getting in a few syllables
Except, it’s Sunday night
The MOTOROLA can’t compete
Neither, red embarrassment of Dangerfield’s tie,
It’s Sunday in the 1960’s, the half where
Teens still marginally obey
And, it is a night for drinking, as
There’s no work, tomorrow morn;
Dad’s team lost the hand, again
Probably from alcohol being involved
It’s Injun-war whoop time,
“JEsus CHRIst!” (cards slapped down)
Everyone sounds like spoiled neighbor boys
Playing roundball
It’s literally the class in Sister Mary Elephant,
Rodney, looking frightened, to the wings
He went to fight and a hockey game broke out
I know just how he feels
