Mr. Bossy-Pants Tells Us How to
Live
“I’m an idea man, Chuck; I get ideas....”
-Michael Keaton as Bill in Night Shift
He never planted a garden or mowed a lawn
There are no trees near his apartment house
His household garbage goes straight to the curb
In unrecycled thick black plastic bags
He sees his SUV as only his due
But wants bicycles for the rest of us
And keeps his air-conditioning comfy-cool
He flies first class to teach us clean-air truths
He makes a bludgeon of the term “organic”
And profits thus from others’ moral panic
