"O Assess Me Not for My Lone Prairie"

1) O assess me not, for my lone prairie,
Don't let those county clerks
Rub their hands in glee,
When I got my farm,
I thought I'd be free,
But they're taxing me
Like the ci'-i-ty.

2) O assess me not, for my lone prairie,
When the de-vel'-o-pers
Get their gra'-aa-vy,
And the sub-di-vis'-ion
Is my neigh'-bor-ly,
O assess me not,
For my lone prairie.

3) O assess me not,  for my lone prairie,
Don't say I can't
Spray my poison i-i-vy,
'Cause a rare cock-roach
Is havin' its ba'-a-bies,
O assess me not,
For my lone prairie.

4) O assess me not,  for my lone prairie,
Don't say I can't
Keep my po'-o-ny,
'Cause the yuppies don't
Like the poop and pee,
O assess me not,
For my lone prairie.

5) O assess me not,  for my lone prairie,
Do I blame it on,
The P.C. Par-t-y' ?
Or the Lib'-er-als?
Or the N.D.P.?
O assess me not,
For my lone prairie.
