Mayor Bubbles had a dream
The corner post of his regime
To build walking and bike trails
And tear down con man Lyle Lanley’s monorail
The town agreed to rid themselves of Lyle’s wrong doing
With the monorail they had taken a royal screwing
And everyone agreed to the path
Except the trail met one citizen’s wrath
Mr Legree had in his yard a tree
That had stood since 1733
And he showed up at the town meeting wearing a suit and frown
And declared that no one would chop his tree down
The tree issue was sent to committee
And they ruled for the city
So Mr Legree went to the historical commission
That the tree was a historical landmark was their decision
The town vowed to build the trail anyway
And would start that day
“I think the citizens of this town are smart enough to avoid a tree” Mayor Bubbles said
But his blank faced constituents filled him with dread
When it was completed, Bubbles said he would take a bikeride
First grade was the last time he tried
He rode the bike never feeling so happy and free
until he smacked headfirst into the tree.
Today the tree and monorail still stand
Because of the citizens’ demands
And the mayor’s decree
To transport the injured citizens who crashed into the gd tree
