If You Are Whoopi Goldberg

It’s all about the race to not come in last place, (and finding the gold hidden in the mud)

If you are Whoopi Goldberg, you are probably sort of wealthy
If you are Neil Young, your Heart of Gold could keep our planet healthy
If you are a shmuck like most of us, you don’t like the thought police
If you have a big platform on media, you mine pure gold thoughts the least
If you make big bucks by scandal, use the N-word, Yes, it’s golden!
If you make million$ per podcast, you probably are Joe Rogan
So, this week we screech and cancel, next week it’s someone new
Your only vote is your tiny voice — unless you’re on The View
Let’s use free speech, but bear in mind, for some, we pay them to be jerks

And, that, my fellow shmucks, is why calling out should be paid work
