I’m Depressed
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Call me Eeyore I won’t bitch
It only makes my donkey itch
And when it does I have to scratch it
But to do that I have to catch it
Don’t let your donkeys run away
But bring those asses home to stay
I know they might be stubborn now
But it will all work out somehow
It’s better that you scratch your itch
Then to hit your donkey with a switch
Stop! Picking on that ass.
