STAR SPANGLED HAM, by Dr Suss
 I am Sam. Uncle Sam I am.

That Uncle Sam, that Uncle Sam I do not like that Uncle Sam. 

Do you like star-spangled ham?
I do not like it Uncle Sam. I do not like star-spangled ham.

Would you like it Iran, my man?
Or in a cave in Afghanistan?
Would you, could you, on a truck? Would you like it in Iraq?

I will not eat it in Iran, or in a cave, and I’m not your man.

I will not eat it in Afghanistan.

I would not like it on a truck, I will not eat it in Iraq.

I do not like Star Spangled ham. I will not eat it Uncle Sam.

Would you could you on a boat, on a boat with refugees.
Will you eat it in the sand - there’s hidden double-you-MDs.
Not on a boat with refugees, not in the sand, Sam let me be. There are no double-you-MDs.

I do not like star-spangled ham. I do not want it Uncle Sam.
 

I did not like it in Vietnam, I will not eat it in Iran.

I will not eat it in a truck, I will not eat it in Iraq, or on a boat or in the sand or in a cave in Afghanistan. Uncle Sam you let me be, there are no double you MDs. I’ll choke and gag on free trade taxes before I fight your evil axis.

I will not eat it here or there, I will not eat it anywhere. I do not eat star spangled ham. I will not eat it Uncle Sam.

Would you like it in a sesame seed bun?
Sam, if you will let me be, I will try it, you will see. Sam, if you will let me be, I will try it, you will see. SAM! I like Star Spangled Ham!

Sam, if you will let me be, I will try it, you will see. SAM! I like Star Spangled Ham!Would you like fries or an invasion force with that?
