Far East Gone Too Far

Confucius say, “How far you’ve sunk
Your country filled with Chinese junk”
We should have guessed their strategy
When we first learned that MSG
Was added to the Crab Rangoon
To make sure we’d go back there soon

Our hunger spread beyond cuisines
To sneakers, blenders and flat-screens
Toys and toothpaste joined the list
At prices no one could resist

You’d think that China’s goals were met
Once they secured our nation’s debt
But like a meal of wontons fried
Their appetite’s not satisfied

Now they’re hacking our computers
Beijing sanctioning these looters
It’s time consumers turn the tables
Boycott goods with Chinese labels!
