Farewell, adieu to Gary Bauer. We never thought that you’d be our Next President. Too small. Too sour. The countryside we’d have to scour To find someone to put in power Who’s less like Dwight D. Eisenhower. If bashing gays most every hour Could get a wee campaign to flower, You wouldn’t head now for the shower.
