To the editor:
In the mood of the “1776” movie song about John Adams forcing Thomas Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence, a few lyrics for Mayor Eric Adams:
Mayor. Adams, damn you, Mayor Adams,
You’re a devious one, that cannot be denied
You surround yourself with loyal fools
Who always take your side
And now the feds have uncovered your hidden underside.
Did you conspire with foreign leaders
To get gifts and foreign trips?
While lying to the public
To hide your sinking ship
Promoting your career and wealth was a clever trick.
Was it worth it, was it, Mayor Adams?
You will soon find out and face your fate
Didn’t you career in law enforcement
Help to keep you straight?
And facing temptation make you hesitate?
Michael J. Gorman
