The news comes endlessly.

Bad news upon bad news upon bad,

the reason is that “Baby born in Brooklyn” doesn’t sell anything,

unless the baby has three heads,

or is born to the man who was just arrested and sent to jail,

but hey there was baby born in Brooklyn.

Her name is probably Jada or maybe Tashara.

I bet she has green eyes, and her mother cried tears of joy.

Oh yeah, by the way, you survived another day,

smile!
