To: AAABEST
I had a quarter, to call someone who cared,
About our nation and how it faired.
Ten rings I waited, as good phone etiquette decrees,
"Maggie's Drawers" were just flapping in the breeze.
I placed the call, but it didn't do any good,
Steadily ringing, I put it down when I should.

I told my neighbors what I saw taking place,
They said the cops would be coming with mace.
I thought they could use my quarter for themselves,
I wasn't surprised to see it was dusty on the shelves.
I took back my quarter to try and call once again,
I was called a thief and told "stealing is a sin."

I've called many times and never an answer I get,
I've gotten so angry that I could just spit.
But I stopped trying to reach anyone some time ago,
I got tired of telling others to watch the magic show.
For the magician has always got something up his sleeve,
That he doesn't is what he needs you to believe.
