American Corn...
Cheesey,
Embellished,
Kitschy,
Ticky-tacky knic-knac,
I love all these roadsides,
Waving brash history's hat,
It's all fascinating,
The stories of bygone days,
The glories of our bric-a-brac.
Polish up the bullhorn,
Paint up a new sign,
Print it in the paper,
Blogs and social media,
Everywhere you can think and find,
Radio and TV,
Podcast and YouTube,
It's all very well.
Bring out the children,
Animals and local celebrities,
Old coaches and whistling trains.
From the world's largest ketchup bottle,
To castles in death valley,
Mining caves and ghost towns,
Cotton candy and carnivals,
Snap crackle and pop,
I love American Corn.
