Inspired by my America In The 60's class, and Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" song, I wrote this one in class. I know, his song has more verses, but I was working under pressure. I think I did a pretty good job with monumental events, however, let me know if you think I missed something important.
Enjoy
Elton John, Enron,
Gulf Spill,
Exxon Valdez,
Health Care Bill.
Google, Apple, Yahoo,
Ipod, Lymewire, always need more
Pac-Man, Internet, Atari,
Commodore Sixty-Four.
Iran-Contra,Ollie Notrh,
Waco, Bulger, President Bush and Bush,
Cheney, Katrina,
Bin Laden, Terrorist Mush,
Baltic States, Challenger,
Star Wars, Tsunami, USSR Breaks,
Columbine, Chilean Mines,
Obama, Finally the Red Sox's Time.
Obesity, Child Abuse,

Horrific Attacks, on that Day,
WHAT ELSE DO I HAFTA SAY?!?!?
Looking at it now, I wish I had added something about Lady Gaga, and the Marine Barracks in the Middle East. I realize 'Terrorist Mush" isn't the best, but It was the best rhyme I could think of. Again, I welcome everybodys input.
