DescriptionLetterpress printed poem by Tom Clark, titled "STOOGES ANONYMOUS". STOOGES ANONYMOUS
You see us as ridiculous and you laugh
We don't care if you laugh
We'd laugh too
We are a miscellaneous class
Our backgrounds are diverse
The thing we do are various
But here is what unites us
We only act this way for cash
We are Stooges Anonymous
We lower ourselves for money
You may humiliate us
You may embarass us
You may do anything
You want to us
Because we are Stooges Anonymous!
We're educated but we got no ideas
No standards No beliefs No class
Speaking strictly we're trash
Speaking any way at all
We're still trash
Got no manners No personalities
We're stooges
Stooges Anonymous
We do it for cash
We lower ourselves for money
We do any kind of act
You may think we're pathetic
You're right we say
Just don't try telling us
The check's in the mail
