Seriously — “Malarkey” ?? So outdated, so out of touch. I honestly am not sure if this is very clever satire. Also am now singing the “Iowa Stubborn” song from “The Music Man”
“Oh, there’s nothing halfway
About the Iowa way to treat you,
When we treat you
Which we may not do at all.
There’s an Iowa kind of special
Chip-on-the-shoulder attitude.
We’ve never been without.
That we recall. ...”
‘’And we can be cold as our falling thermometers in December/if you ask about our weather in July...’’
