The Lyrics

I offer long-term advice to a Congressman who should have resigned and saved me the trouble (and pleasure) of writing this. TOS, also recorded by innumerable artists, similarly predicted dire consequences for infidelity and dishonesty. His going into therapy will prevent a special election, essentially putting a hold on his seat and denying his constituents representation.

I reluctantly credit a New York Times op-ed by Maureen Dowd for my title.
Your tweeting-parts thrill makes you cheap.
You lie and cry, and try to keep
Your seat in House your whole life through.
Your tweeted parts still smell (john flue). [1]

When peers come frown, you bawl in vain.
You've lost your sound and fall in shame.
You'd stalk some 'ore, then say, "I do.",
Your tweeted parts compelling you.

Your tweeted parts, on-line entree,
Enslave and govern you today.
The time will come when they'll be through.
Your sweet'ning parts won't swell on cue.

When beers [2] come down, you'll stall in pain.
You'll cross and pound the wall [3] till lame.
You'll walk the floor, and pray like Jew. [4]
Your fleeting parts ring knell for you.

Your greeting part is "gone to hell." Mon Dieu!

[1] a.k.a. standpipe vent
[2] or other fluids through his prostate
[3] of the bathroom
[4] Implies concern about health, expressed in no specific faith.

JB: Thanks; I hope that you read beyond the title. ;-) MD's was "Your cheatin' heart". My third line is not quite correct; he had other ambitions, e.g., NYC mayor or NY governor.

Oops! I meant "Your tweetin' heart" for Maureen Dowd's op-ed title.

Thanks, Warren & Dana. LOL re the hat! I hope you're old enough to understand my "downer" ending, but don't have those symptoms yet.
