Courtroom Jester

Half the Courtroom Jester,
Half a Nickeled purse,
Could there be a finer gent,
Well, there couldn't be any worse.
Hey there, Mr. Suntop,
Mr. Raincloud just dropped in,
and turned the Courtroom Jester,
and places he has been,
Into...
Into a jug of wine, a splattered rainbow hue.

Now, the jokes, the laughs,
 are weighted down,
and watered down like you.

1972
